The question is already obsolete. I have checked it, TIMER0 breaks PerfView
mechanism til releasing IRQ0. It seems to be difficult to maintain PerfView
during TIMER0 running. (But it seems to be even more difficult before and
after, at least for me, at least using IRQ0 with PIT 0 default divider 65536.)
Anyway maintaining PerfView mechanism will require further changes to CLOCK0x
and, may be, TIMER0, IMHO.

Cheers,
