For example, with the USRP as the i/o device, we _know_ the actual data rate across the USB. We don't explicitly use setitimer, but there's a chance that Python could be using it behind the scenes for reasons of it's own. FYI, when the high-resolution timing support is complete, it will effectively be counting samples too -- only this time out in the FPGA.
