I did some tests, and when I replace getuid() or getpid() with
gettimeofday(), it actually gets faster.
getuid takes 14usec on my machine.
gettimeofday takes 4usec on my machine.
I think that is pretty strange.

#include <sys/time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
void main(void)
{
struct timeval tv1, tv2, tv3;
gettimeofday(&tv1, 0);
getuid(); <--- here
gettimeofday(&tv2, 0);
printf("Time1: %d:%d\n", tv1.tv_sec, tv1.tv_usec);
printf("Time2: %d:%d\n", tv2.tv_sec, tv2.tv_usec);
}
