Retrieves the current value of a 64-bit free running performance counter.
Retrieves the current value of a 64-bit free running performance counter. The
counter can either count up by 1 or count down by 1. If the physical
performance counter counts by a larger increment, then the counter values
must be translated. The properties of the counter can be retrieved from
GetPerformanceCounterProperties().
@return The current value of the free running performance counter.

/**
Retrieves the 64-bit frequency in Hz and the range of performance counter
values.
If StartValue is not NULL, then the value that the performance counter starts
with immediately after is it rolls over is returned in StartValue. If
EndValue is not NULL, then the value that the performance counter end with
immediately before it rolls over is returned in EndValue. The 64-bit
frequency of the performance counter in Hz is always returned. If StartValue
is less than EndValue, then the performance counter counts up. If StartValue
is greater than EndValue, then the performance counter counts down. For
example, a 64-bit free running counter that counts up would have a StartValue
of 0 and an EndValue of 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. A 24-bit free running counter
that counts down would have a StartValue of 0xFFFFFF and an EndValue of 0.
@param StartValue The value the performance counter starts with when it
rolls over.
@param EndValue The value that the performance counter ends with before
it rolls over.
@return The frequency in Hz.
