One way is to `cat /proc/cpuinfo` and then parse the value out of 
that. I suspect there is a better way, though.

Hi,
I need to get the CPU frequency programmatically, how do I do that?
printf("%d\n",sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK));
printf("%d\n", CLOCKS_PER_SEC);
does not help, they  show the same value (128) on different machines
with different CPU speed.

Regards,
Abhay
