: And nobody in this thread has ever mentioned Time::HiRes. Is there a reason?

Probably the same reason no one has mentioned this:

=begin fiction

use more 'time'; #or
use subsecond qw( time sleep alarm ); #or
use Time::HiRes # even :)

=end

Not that there needs to be any discussion on this but IMHO things that
can reasonably live outside the core should.  I heard somewhere that
most people think this way too.   Examples: dbm*, formats... perhaps
high resolution time().  If people want it, they can ask for it.  It
seems hot enough to be considered for the Standard Distro, too.
