Add high-resolution timestamps to log files for debug situations
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-3236
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3236
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Kim van der Riet
            Assignee: Kim van der Riet


In some performance-related debug situations, it would be useful to see the 
time between logged events (in debug or trace mode). However, the standard log 
timestamp has a 1 second resolution, and it does not help matters when hundreds 
of events of interest all occur within the same second.

I propose to add a #define in qpid/sys/posix/Time.cpp which would change the 
timestamp printed by the outputFormattedNow() method to an unformatted 
second/nanosecond output. This define would be uncommented and compiled in when 
needed, but remain commented out for normal use. A comment would explain its 
use.

I am sure an equivalent change could also be made to the windows version in 
qpid/sys/windows/Time.cpp.
