What do you get if you get the time as an array using gettimeofday? A
difference would indicate it is a problem in the conversion of the
system time format to a floating point format. The following is the
relevant comment for the perldoc (see NOTE 2):
time ()
Returns a floating seconds since

Hi all,
I'm having some problems with the time reported by Time::HiRes::time().
I'm working on a non-blocking ping application, and using the system
time to calculate round-trip-times. Basically, what I'm doing is:
$start_time=time;
send a ping.
Do some other stuff

Yes I have tried it. Same results.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Make sure that you are running version 1.53 of Time::HiRes or later:
perl -MTime::HiRes -eprint$Time::HiRes::VERSION
Earlier versions were acting more like Time::LoRes on Windows.
Could be the problem. I'm using version 1.5
Is there a later one available for Perl 5.6? I can't use 5.8 on this
project.

Hmm, it looks like 1.5 is the latest on PPM. It should be up to 1.59.
I'll ping our build engineer to look into it...
Cheers,

This is interesting. Using your example, if I change the usleep to 1000, I
get a result of 0.010015 seconds.
