Проблема .NET System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch (возвращает слишком низкие значения)

На моем компьютере секундомер возвращает слишком низкие значения. Например, 200 мс, когда я указал Thread.Sleep(1000). Программа должна ждать 1 секунду. Я также тестировал ManualResetEvent.WaitOne(1000) и получил те же результаты. И фреймворк 2.0, и 3.0 демонстрируют такое странное поведение. Я использую Windows XP SP3 с .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

Вот результат моих тестов (код ниже):

1000 ms for DateTime.Now.Ticks
0201 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedTicks
0142 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds
0139 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedTicks after Reset
0264 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedTicks setting ThreadAffinity
0151 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedTicks setting ProcessorAffinity (and more)
0371 ms for Stopwatch.ElapsedTicks with Syncronized object
Done!
