I don't think so. 32-bits is enough for the billion nanoseconds in a second. And I'm not sure if the signedness is used/useful... the ceph utime_t code always normalizes the ns result to be in [0, 1 billion). sage > > > > > Add some explicit casts so the fact that this conversion is taking > > place is obvious.
