Intel® VTune™ Amplifier XE and Intel® VTune™ Amplifier for Systems Help
The default timer resolution on Windows is 15.6 ms – a timer interrupt 64 times a second. While in connected standby, the resolution will be changed by the operating system to 30 seconds. When programs increase the timer frequency (decrease the timer resolution), they increase power consumption of the platform.
The Timer Resolution shows the time spent in each resolution interval during the collection period.
This metric is collected as part of Energy analysis. Energy analysis with the Intel® SoC Watch data collector is available for target Android*, Windows*, or Linux* devices and provided only with the Intel® VTune™ Amplifier for Systems.
