Professor mentioned the reviewer may question if we use two timing. Steven thinks he can reasonably explain this design in paper.
But if steven can find a better way to only use RDTSC to time rather than using both times it will satisfy both the Prof and steven's expectation.
The previous design choice is because steven wants to exclude scheduling time from actual timing result so that it is easier to find efficient ways to identify API that does not change in execution time.
