| Performance of <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Context</strong></span> was measured |
| on the platforms shown in the following table. Performance measurements were |
| taken using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">rdtsc</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">chrono</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">high_resolution_clock</span></code>, with overhead corrections, |
| on x86 platforms. In each case, cache warm-up was accounted for, and the |
| one running thread was pinned to a single CPU. The code was compiled using |
| the build options, 'variant = release cxxflags = -DBOOST_DISABLE_ASSERTS'. |
