// This defines how many loops before we decide that

// Percentage error before we declare fail: range 0 - 100
#define TOLERANCE 40

// Permissible absolute deviation from mean value to take care of incorrect
// failure conclusions in case of small mean values (if absolute values of
// clock() are small, percentage variation can be large)
#define FUDGE_FACTOR 6

// Number of samples to take
#define SAMPLES 30

// We ignore ctrs[0] because it's always 0
// We ignore ctrs[1] because it will always be odd since it was
// the first measurement taken at the start of the looping, and
// the initial clock measurement (in clocks[0]) was not treated as
// part of the loop and therefore can't be considered to take the same
// time.
// We ignore ctrs[2] because it always seems to be substantially faster
// that the other samples. Probably due to cache/timing effect after the
// previous loop.
// Finally, ctrs[3] is skipped because it's also very fast on ARM targets.
