I haven't been following the thread, but if the complaint is that
Windows doesn't have accurate high-resolution timers, which is what it
kinda looks like from the rest of your message, then it's not true.
Every version since Windows2000 has had
QueryPerformanceCounter()/QueryPerformanceFrequency(). And we use it:
see src/include/portability/instr_time.h
If that's not the problem, then can someone please point me at the
message that sets the problem out clearly, or else just recap it?
cheers
