306     NKSP. However when calculating time differences between two time
307     stamps taken with <code>$NKSP_REAL_TIMER</code>, calling such a reset
308     function is not required, because the underlying clock does not stop
309     when it reached its value limit (which happens every 71 minutes), instead the clock
310     will automatically restart from zero and the calculated time difference
311     even between such transitions will reflect correct durations.</td>

317     time stamps which can be used to calculate the time difference
318     (in microseconds) which elapsed between them. A performance time
319     stamp is based on the script's actual CPU execution time. So the
320     internal clock which is used for generating such time stamps is only
321     running forward if the respective script is actually executed by the
322     CPU. Whenever your script is not really executed by the CPU (i.e. because
323     your script got suspended by a wait() call or got forcely suspended due to
324     real-time constraints, or when the entire sampler application got suspended
325     by the OS for other applications or OS tasks) then the underlying internal
326     clock is paused as well.

328     You should only use this built-in variable for script development
329     purposes (i.e. for bench marking the performance of your script).
330     You should <b>not</b> use it with your final production sounds!
331     It is not appropriate for being used in a musical context, because
332     when an offline bounce is performed for instance, the musical timing
333     will be completely unrelated to the CPU execution time. Plus using
334     this variable may cause audio drop outs on some systems. In a musical
335     context you should use <code>$ENGINE_UPTIME</code> instead, which is
