    45     The resolution is 1 ps.
       
    46     However, such small timedurations are usually only created by physical computations
       
    47     (see goodies/physic).
       
    48     The typical OS-time resolution is in the milli- or microsecond range.
       
    49     External logging hardware may generate timestamps in the micro- or nanosecond range.
       
    50     Picosecond resolution should be good enough for almost any application (at least for the near future).
