Check out "Time::HiRes" (High resolution alarm, sleep, gettimeofday, interval timers) in the latest MacPerl 5.6.1b2 release. It's worth the upgrade for me. #!perl use Time::HiRes qw(gettimeofday); for (1..10) { ($seconds, $microseconds) = gettimeofday; # since the epoch print "$seconds $microseconds\n"; } __END__ On my iBook this prints... 3089528308 430620 3089528308 446472 3089528308 447951 3089528308 448961 3089528308 449932 3089528308 450913 3089528308 452126 3089528308 453134 3089528308 454110 3089528308 455082
