I don't know openssl well enough to know if it has this capability, but my first instinct would be to use something I know well, such as one of the Boost libraries that seems relevant. That strikes me as much easier and simpler than delving into the bowels of a library I am using (I almost never look at the boost code, I just use the libraries). Thus, if you're using C++, why not use the relevant boost library? http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/doc/html/date_time/posix_time.html One of the countless things it lets you do is compute the difference between two timestamps.
