> GCE VM time can be corrected by NTP sync. If this 
> happens,`System.currentTimeMillis()` can set back to the past. You may see 
> this [^clock_correction.png] in Cloud Logging for time correction. 
> The rolled back clock can cause skewed metrics. For example, 
> `ExecutionStateSampler` uses `System.currentTimeMillis` [1]. I guess we can 
> mitigate this issue using `System.nanoTime` for elapsed times (maybe not 
> perfect as per [2]).
