+If the TSC column does not make sense, then
+the other numbers will also make no sense.
+Turbostat is lightweight, and its data collection is not atomic.
+These issues are usually caused by an extremely short measurement
+interval (much less than 1 second), or system activity that prevents
+turbostat from being able to run on all CPUS to quickly collect data.

 The APERF, MPERF MSRs are defined to count non-halted cycles.
 Although it is not guaranteed by the architecture, turbostat assumes
 that they count at TSC rate, which is true on all processors tested to date.
