For sure. My concern is that it wouldn't increase either. The granularity is microseconds but with a call like getpid() for example the kernel might just return a cached value which, I assume after enough loops, would increase the timer but what is enough? And enough will change I think as build environments get faster machines faster kernels and so on.
