Btw, in theory CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW should be even better, though it's
only available from linux 2.6.28
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW lacks the fixes by NTP.
That's not good for Now(), but it's perfect solution for getTickCount().
GetTickCount() should not be aware of ntp or adjtime() changes - so in
that case CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW is the only correct solution.

Yes - CLOCK_MONOTONICC_RAW is prefreable, because general GetTickCount()
is number of millisecond ticks since system startup. It cannot be
adjusted by time services, it just grows up every 1 msec.
Ant typical GetTickCount() usage - find a difference between subsequent
values.
It would be amazing when difference gets negative.

Anton
