- dependency on LCL
I have fixed this well over a year or two ago. The only LCL dependency
was the registration of the EpikTimer component on the Lazarus
component palette. I simply split the original lazarus package into
two packages (runtime and design-time) - that

You notice the loop regarding SharedUserData again? ;) (though this time
it also contains a call to YieldProcessor and a comment regarding the

Why ?
Because current GetTickCount in lazarus uses Now() which is movable
backward/forward by ntpd under unixes, and that could be a huge problem.

In our previous episode, zeljko said:
So, according to POSIX clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) is supported on
linux, bsd and others, and in that case we can have exact GetTickCount.
If there's no support for monotonic clock on some platform , now() can be
returned anytime.
Forget all
Withdrawn.
It is only partially true.
Still it can not be expanded and can overflow easily.

This is what MSDN
If you want to do timing, you can also take a look at EpikTimer. I
believe it doesn't work on all platforms that FPC supports, but it
works on the big three (Windows, Linux, Mac).

If we are going to add this I would prefer to get the result in
microseconds. If the platform doesnt support, then just multiply the
result, but still
