[Vm-dev] [pharo-project/pharo] Windows image has system time delay of 40 seconds (#2792)

[Eliot Miranda]

Hi Sabine,

    I proposed a solution, and included an example implementation and asked
for review here in February of 2016.  Re: Time millisecondClockValue (was:
The Trunk: Morphic-mt.1080.mcz)
<http://forum.world.st/Time-millisecondClockValue-was-The-Trunk-Morphic-mt-1080-mcz-tp4877661p4877918.html>
But I received no feedback whatsoever.  I'm not particularly excited by
doing all the heavy lifting while the unethical pass off my work as theirs,
and contribute nothing back. But that's where we are.
