[fpc-pascal] Very vague gettickcount64 description?

Hi,

While consulting the online reference about gettickcount 
https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/gettickcount64.html
I could not know anything about the units involved.

It says "It is useful for time measurements, but no assumtions should be 
made as to the interval between the ticks."

I understand that in some cases the measure may deviate from the real 
value but perhaps, at least the units, should be stated.


Greetings,

Paulo Costa
