No it isn't!
The Disk routines turns of the interrupts while reading/writing to disk.
So it could be possible that you have one interupt registration when the
next EI is done while in reality there could be already two or tree
'interupt times' passed (But since the interrupt line was still high
from the first one they went by unnoticed)
