Camille Fournier commented on ZOOKEEPER-1366:
---------------------------------------------
@Henry: I am fine with doing it as a separate ticket. I do think it's pretty
trivial to rework this and get ourselves far down the road with a non-static
impl, and not sure that we need to address Thread.sleep() to get a lot of
mileage out of the solution. But I don't think I'll have time to rework this
patch to do that so might as well do it in a separate ticket if Ted doesn't
want to worry about that.

> If you want to wreak havoc on a ZK based system just do [date -s "+1hour"]
> and watch the mayhem as all sessions expire at once.
> This shouldn't happen. Zookeeper could easily know handle elapsed times as
> elapsed times rather than as differences between absolute times. The
> absolute times are subject to adjustment when the clock is set while a timer
> is not subject to this problem. In Java, System.currentTimeMillis() gives
> you absolute time while System.nanoTime() gives you time based on a timer
> from an arbitrary epoch.
> I have done this and have been running tests now for some tens of minutes
> with no failures. I will set up a test machine to redo the build again on
> Ubuntu and post a patch here for discussion.
