Task execution time in freertos

[Rsrma.1]

I'm using freertos on stm32f407vg Discovery board. I'm running system at 150MHz.

I want to calculate time taken by a task for that below is the code snippet.

        TickType_t initial_time = 0, end_time = 0,diff = 0;
	initial_time = xTaskGetTickCount();
 
	while(1)
	{
		HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_12, GPIO_PIN_SET);
		HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_14, GPIO_PIN_SET);
		vTaskDelay(1000);
		HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_12, GPIO_PIN_RESET);
		HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOD, GPIO_PIN_14, GPIO_PIN_RESET);
 
		end_time= xTaskGetTickCount();
		diff = end_time - initial_time;
	}

I'm getting difference value = 1000 , which is the value of delay. So should I understand that freertos don't count time taken by a other instructions or I'm missing something. Please clarify.

Ticks are in increments of 1ms. Likely the other code is executing in way less than 1ms and so doesn't make an impact.

Thanks, Probably this could be the reason.
