Ah! Thanks that explains what I am seeing between Win32 and the Mac, thanks I now trust my timing a bit better.
I was using the stopwatch ElapsedTicks property rather than getting the Elapsed as a TimeSpan then using that (which is a nicer way to do it anyway). Out of interest is there any documentation on what the resolution of the timers on different platforms are? Is there some Linux/Unix/Posix standard timer that is used, that I can then look up for the platforms that I'm working with?

Hi, Stopwatch resolution is fixed and high resolution mode is not supported. I'm not sure what you meant "work" though. It works per TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond.
