Milliseconds since UNIX epoch!

I'm not sure about the usefulness of increasing precision if you can only guarantee a certain precision upon synchronization. I wonder if increased clock activity translates to increased clock temperature and increased clock variation. And I worry about more frequent logging and disk usage/space.

But one thing I am sure of -- we would make good friends ;)
