Which is why I requested a separate function which just gives the picosecs since startup (or something).

That's what getCPUTime in System.CPUTime does.

No it isnt'. getCPUTime gives the.. uh.. CPU-time :-) If all my program does is sleep, waiting for other programs to release some resource, then getCPUTime will return zero. What I'm requesting is a function which gives the number of wall-clock picos seconds since startup, which could be used for all sorts of real-time simulations etc. /S -- Sebastian Sylvan +46(0)736-818655 UIN: 44640862
