Cycle Rate field in the data structure

Hello,

When I read the BHV2 data using mlread function, it generates a data structure with multiple fields. One of these fields is called CycleRate. Could you please let me know what information does this field encompass? (P.S: Example values : [1.76920000001246,2933])

Thank you.

They are the two numbers displayed at the lower-left corner when you are running a task and indicate how long one iteration of the internal loop took in the previous trial (the worst case; in milliseconds) and how many times the loop was iterated per second during the trial. They are there for a historical reason but do not have much informational values.
