HRTIMER.SYS is a high resolution timer implemented as a device driver. Shows more accurate reading of e.g. the CPU-Meter in Memsize.

DEVICE=HRTIMER.SYS
Note
Do not run any Windows session while using HRTIMER.SYS otherwise the output is either much too high or much too low. HRTimer (all versions) requires the time slice be less than 55 milliseconds. This should be the case in all unaltered environments. If you choose to increase the TIMESLICE setting in the CONFIG.SYS you may not be able to use HRTimer (readout too low).
