2通过时钟循环与高精度计数器计算（非Inter处理器，例如AMD请更改RdTSC宏）

float CGettheProcessorSpeedDlg::ProcSpeedCalc()
{
/*
RdTSC:
It's the Pentium instruction "ReaD Time Stamp Counter". It measures the
number of clock cycles that have passed since the processor was reset, as a
64-bit number. That's what the _emit lines do.*/

// variables for the clock-cycles:
__int64 cyclesStart = 0, cyclesStop = 0;
// variables for the High-Res Preformance Counter:
unsigned __int64 nCtr = 0, nFreq = 0, nCtrStop = 0;

// retrieve performance-counter frequency per second:
if(!QueryPerformanceFrequency((LARGE_INTEGER *) &nFreq)) return 0;

// retrieve the current value of the performance counter:
QueryPerformanceCounter((LARGE_INTEGER *) &nCtrStop);

// add the frequency to the counter-value:
nCtrStop += nFreq;

_asm
{// retrieve the clock-cycles for the start value:

mov DWORD PTR cyclesStart, eax
mov DWORD PTR [cyclesStart + 4], edx
}

do{// retrieve the value of the performance counter until 1 sec has gone by:

}while (nCtr < nCtrStop);

_asm
{// retrieve again the clock-cycles after 1 sec. has gone by:
RdTSC
mov DWORD PTR cyclesStop, eax
mov DWORD PTR [cyclesStop + 4], edx
}

// stop-start is speed in Hz divided by 1,000,000 is speed in MHz
return ((float)cyclesStop-(float)cyclesStart) / 1000000;
