Yes, Basically I measure the how fast the LED flashes, however its not
in just a simple loop, and interrupts are enabled.  But I did notice
that the speed increase during this loop is higher, then the speed
increase over a long period doing a more complex task.  Ie, at 73.7Mhz
41ns the LED blinks 23% faster, however a more complex task (DES
encryption/decryption) has only spedup by 17%.
