Instead of guessing the cpu speed based on performance counters query the system for the cpu speed without directly using any intel instructions. Presumably this will also make get_cpu_speed more reliable.
I assume get_cpu_speed attempts to get the maximum clock speed because that's what the old version returned for me. If you want, I can add a loop over all the returned results and return the maximum or the value for the current cpu to better support heterogeneous architectures.
