I don't know. But it's apparently *not* a string that includes a
gettimeofday value:

$ perl tim.pl 18446744069800424010
00:00:00.424010 Sunday 00 January 1900

$ perl tim.pl 1844674406980042
04:33:26.980042 Thursday 15 June 2028

$ perl tim.pl 18446744069800
07:05:44.069800 Sunday 02 August 1970

tim.pl is the program shown on p134 of "Optimizing Oracle Performance."

I haven't yet been able to figure out the "tim=" values in Win2k trace
files (Oracle 9.2.0.4).  

I have values such as 18446744069800424010 from a trace done a couple
of days ago.

The resolution is presumably > microseconds, since the figures have 20
digits (4 more than the microsecond resolution values on Linux, so that
would be, what, tenths of nanoseconds???).  And I guess the Windows
epoch is not the same as the Unix epoch (perish the thought).  Has
anyone figured out how to convert these to wall clock time values?

TIA
