Ok, I understand that. I was not expecting more resolution. I expected only that I would get more precise 10ms delays. What confuses me is that the delays roughly doubled.

It is good to know that the problem is not the arm architecture itself. Thanks to you for that.
The problem must be in the lh7a40x specific code or my configuration. I am not yet convinced enough that high resolution timer implementation would solve the problem. I don't need timing resolution finer than 10ms providing that FB doesn't blow it up to 60ms.
Could you or someone please give a hint where to look next or give an explanation why the lack of high resolution timer would behave like that.
