Module Runtime_events.Timestamp

module Timestamp: sig .. end

type t

Abstract timestamp included in events.

val to_int64 : t -> int64

Convert a timestamp to a number of nanosecond.

Note that the starting point for timestamps in unspecified: the absolute value is meaningless, only differences matter.

Also note that the precision of the underlying clock may be coarser than nanoseconds: events may have equal timestamp if they are emitted within the coarseness of the clock.

val get_current : unit -> t

Access the current timestamp.
