Hi Peter,

Do you mean across different L4 implementations or different
architectures in OKL4. In both cases the timer tick length ends
up being implementation specific. 

Part of our anticipated development is to enable variable length
timers, so that rather than a constant tick, timer interrupts
are only received at the end of the current thread's timeslice.

Cheers,

Ben
