Currently, the PEP 564 is mostly designed for handling time on the same computer. Better resolution inside the same process, and "synchronization" between two processes running on the same host: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0564/#issues-caused-by-precision-loss Maybe tomorrow, time.time_ns() will help for use cases with more computers :-) > See https://blog.cloudflare.com/how-to-achieve-low-latency/ This article doesn't mention NTP, synchronization or nanoseconds. Where did you see "230 ns" for NTP?
