Erik Krogen commented on HADOOP-16266:
--------------------------------------

[~cgregori] and I noticed an issue that the new code was using 
{{Time.monotonicNowNanos()}}, but was comparing the resulting value to numbers 
produced by {{Time.now()}} (after a unit conversion). This will produce wildly 
wrong results since one is the arbitrary system clock, and one is real time. I 
think the right way to handle this is to convert all of the timings within 
{{Server}} to use {{monotonicNowNanos()}}.

[~elgoiri], I saw your concern above about the use of {{monotonicNowNanos()}}. 
I wonder if this is an outdated concern? I tried to do some reading on the 
subject and found [this well-written 
answer|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/510462/is-system-nanotime-completely-useless/54566928#54566928]
 which sounds like it is no longer a concern in newer JDK versions. It would be 
great to hear if you have other concerns around the use of 
{{monotonicNowNanos()}} because I have written lots of other code which uses it 
as well :)
