Some unusual profiling data

I've collected some profiling data in a rather unusual way and I'm not even sure whether it's any use at all.
Anyway, what I did is measuring the frame times without the rendering, for every single frame. I've collected between 50'000 and 1'000'000 data points for each scenario.
Then Matlab was kind enough to plot a histogram of these 'tick times'. And I would like to share this data with you:

The first one was an empty level without any ship at all, but with the match started:
empty.png
empty.png (6.4 KiB) Viewed 15972 times
Data plus 1 on a log10 scale with wider x axis:
empty_log.png
empty_log.png (7.89 KiB) Viewed 15972 times
Second one was a match with 50 bots, but I didn't participate:
50bots.png
50bots.png (7.58 KiB) Viewed 15972 times
Data plus 1 on a log10 scale with wider x axis:
50bots_log.png
50bots_log.png (7.04 KiB) Viewed 15972 times
The last scenario is similar to the first one, but PresentationDM instead of EmptyLevel:
dm.png
dm.png (7.33 KiB) Viewed 15970 times
Data plus 1 on a log10 scale with wider x axis:
dm_log.png
dm_log.png (7.25 KiB) Viewed 15970 times

what's on the x axxis for the first plots (plot 1, 3, 5)? tick time in ms ? (cause that wouldn't look reasonable for empty level 60ms without bots and 1.5ms with bots ?!)

I'm sorry for the confusion, I thought I had it all converted to milliseconds.
So, the first two diagrams (first scenario) is in microseconds, the other ones are in milliseconds.
