Enough repetitions of a call are made to ensure 1 in prec accuracy,
having regard to the timebase unit. For instance if it's microseconds
then the default precision is 1000 and enough repetitions are made to
take 1000 microseconds, ie. 1 millisecond. See speed_measure in
common.c.

It's not necessarily very smooth.
