Yes, it is in nanoseconds. It is not the time since the previous invocation - it will always be the same value for a given thread. It is not necessarily the requested period though, since the requested period is usually rounded to hardware limitations (for the fastest thread) or to a multiple of the fastest thread (for slower ones). 'period' is the rounded value.
