Came across this interesting TCL implementation article
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/7.html">http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/7.html</a>
and wondered how the timer resolutions varied across platforms for the
Stack/Cog VMs.

Timing is very important to Croquet, for which Cog was implemented.
So you'll find that delay resolution is >= 2ms on all platforms.

Thanks Eliot. That answered my explicit question. Just to follow up
though since I know you can't read every long article that is linked, I
had posted in case the article's method to get timers with "<span
style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(217, 217, 217); display: inline ! important; float: none;">microsecond
precision with accuracy in the tens of microseconds" on Windows
platforms was of interest to you (I know it is beyond me). <br>
