Timers General

The normal timers (system::timers::timer) are not accurate on fast timings. The thread sleep instruction timer also is often not. A minimum resolution may be 15mS or it may 55mS. Also it seems that if you specify a time of say 10mS, this will get rounded up to match the nearest time resolution – basically crap!
