// Timestamps in trace are produced through either nanotime or cputicks
// and divided by traceTimeDiv. nanotime is used everywhere except on
// platforms where osHasLowResClock is true, because the system clock
// isn't granular enough to get useful information out of a trace in
// many cases.
//
// This makes absolute values of timestamp diffs smaller, and so they are
// encoded in fewer bytes.
//
// The target resolution in all cases is 64 nanoseconds.
// This is based on the fact that fundamentally the execution tracer won't emit
// events more frequently than roughly every 200 ns or so, because that's roughly
// how long it takes to call through the scheduler.
// We could be more aggressive and bump this up to 128 ns while still getting
// useful data, but the extra bit doesn't save us that much and the headroom is
// nice to have.
//
// Hitting this target resolution is easy in the nanotime case: just pick a
// division of 64. In the cputicks case it's a bit more complex.
//
// For x86, on a 3 GHz machine, we'd want to divide by 3*64 to hit our target.
// To keep the division operation efficient, we round that up to 4*64, or 256.
// Given what cputicks represents, we use this on all other platforms except
// for PowerPC.
// The suggested increment frequency for PowerPC's time base register is
// 512 MHz according to Power ISA v2.07 section 6.2, so we use 32 on ppc64
// and ppc64le.
