How frequently can a computer rollover the Microseconds value?
What is the best way to account for rollover for time critical apps?
The largest integer value that a double without approximation can
hold is something like 10^15, so I guess you'd expect overflow every
10^9 seconds or so - about every 31 years. Probably you should test
to be sure.
