  icomment: Indeed, "update idletasks" invokes the things that were scheduled
            previously  for execution at idle time. That can be anything, and the
            time it takes to  carry out "anything" is included in the command's
            timing.

            Therefore, comparing invocations of "update idletasks" is pointless if
            you  didn't exert control over what "update idletasks" invokes in
            turn.  (In the timings that I did, I'm sure that nothing was scheduled
            for  "update idletasks".)
