        Thanks to whoever, currentTimeMillis uses the windows timer which
is only accurate to 18.<something> ms.  Thus your numbers.
        I wrote my own JNI function to get a good timer.  I think it was
very negligent for whoever not to make currentTimeMillis as close to 1ms
accuracy as possible on all systems.
