Comment:

 Rwbarton, I looked at the question from all side and you are right. The
 clock cycles of an instruction do not varies but the number of clock
 cycles to go from the registers to memory or cache memory can be
 different. So it is impossible to have an absolute time (CPU time) but
 only a relative time of CPU in current processors. Sorry!.
 I closed this ticket.
