30      Performance of <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Coroutine</strong></span> was measured
31      on the platforms shown in the following table. Performance measurements were
32      taken using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">rdtsc</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">chrono</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">high_resolution_clock</span></code>,
33      with overhead corrections, on x86 platforms. In each case, cache warm-up was
34      accounted for, and the one running thread was pinned to a single CPU.
