> Review `Time` interface and its usage
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2607
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2607
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2.2
> Reporter: Ismael Juma
> Labels: newbie
>
> Two of `Time` interface's methods are `milliseconds` and `nanoseconds` which
> are implemented in `SystemTime` as follows:
> {code}
> @Override
> public long milliseconds() {
> return System.currentTimeMillis();
> }
> @Override
> public long nanoseconds() {
> return System.nanoTime();
> }
> {code}
> The issue with this interface is that it makes it seem that the difference is
> about the unit (`ms` versus `ns`) whereas it's much more than that:
> https://blogs.oracle.com/dholmes/entry/inside_the_hotspot_vm_clocks
> We should probably change the names of the methods and review our usage to
> see if we're using the right one in the various places.
