Is that correct?

I think so. threadDelay takes microseconds.

Here is a nice trick for you:

Thanks!

--- The filter expression is kind of long... stopTimer :: String -> IO () stopTimer name = block $ do t <- takeMVar timers putMVar timers $ M.filterWithKey (\(_, k) _ -> k /= name) t

And slow. This is O(size_of_map)

Any way to optimize it? I need timer ids so that I can remove a timer before it expires. And I need ClockTime as key to so that I don't have to wake up every second, etc. Joel -- http://wagerlabs.com/
