I did not read your post as carefully as I should, but I still have
concerns when people use stuff like nsec() in the quest of accuracy.
Sorry, I was sort of reacting to another thread in the Go list where
somebody is using gettimeofday() and seems to think the nsec field has
meaning :-)

We don't have good clocks.
