Re^3: Time::HiRes not that high on windowsby BrowserUk (Patriarch) |

Wow! A rave from the grave :) This thread relates to an very old version of Time::HiRes. Later versions use a different system API to allow much higher resolution. For further reading see thread at Perl -de1 weirdness. and particularly Re^4: Perl -de1 weirdness.. The resolution under windows is now comparable at around the 7 microsecond mark (on my machine. It will vary somewhat with the speed of your cpu). Certainly faster than a Perl script can report it. Though the weirdness with Time::HiRes when running under the debugger persists into 5.8.6:
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
