Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-1366:
------------------------------------------

i don't think we should commit with TODO's. it shouldn't be hard to go through 
them before we commit.

in the line that pat identified, it is passing the correct thing operationally, 
but it does mess up the last response time. do we want to add a 
System.currentTimeMillis() just to get the correct last response time? we could 
actually convert the time in getLastResponseTime() using 
System.currentTimeMillis() - (Time.currentElapsedTime()-lastResponseTime), so 
that the extra call to currentTimeMillis would only happen on 
getLastResponseTime, which happens very infrequently.

> 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.
