Re: emulating RDTSC

[Corin Talkobt]

Why not support 1 of 3 modes of the RDTSC? Let the configuration file
choose to over-ride the default?? 

Mode 1:
        Scale the RDTSC from the # of instructions executed under the emulator
and time that would have taken for the virtualized instructions.

Mode 2:
        Drive off the system / host RDTSC with a scaler.

Mode 3:
        Define a given time-value or increment per time-value.

Note that 2 & 3 are basically similair - it's just how the end user
modifying the configuration interprets it/ calculates it.
