Dennis, With the correct modules you can get microsecond and even nanosecond precision. I believe there is a perl equivalent to the c-style gettimeofday function. Check CPAN for the Time::HiRes module. I believe this is the correct module for implementing gettimeofday. -- Wayne Huang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Osiris Communications, Inc. http://www.osiriscomm.com (877) 219-3708 (Office) (978) 383-6390 (Fax) -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
