In my quick and not-so-scientific experiments, I've found that
it is typically about 10 ms, with occasional leaps to 20 ms, most
likely because my xterm stole a timeslice :)
It does always seem to be a multiple of 10 ms, and was never less.
This was done with two busy-waiting threads running, while the
main process used SDL_WaitThread on the first thread.
