It's difficult to find a suitable entry point in this thread, so I'll just

Various language libraries have flexible facilities for formatting date/time
values, maybe c#, and certainly PHP, whereby you can specify a format string,
something like "%d'th %M %Y".

Speaking in posix terms, performance counter is more like CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
using it as CLOCK_REALTIME is a dependency on undefined behavior.

The article was written in 2004. A high precision event timer has been
incorporated in chipsets since 2005.

You use QueryPerformanceCounter.
Is this code tested on Windows? MSDN doesn't specify what
QueryPerformanceCounter returns.

My 2 cents:
Units of time are represented more naturally by an integer enum (could be
anonymous) than a string.
A problem recurring in many methods:

Yes, but I also wanted to look at the implementation.
You don't actually have to go trolling through the code to look at the
API.

Another option is to modify the compiler so it sees unittests modules as part
of another module (using a mixin() on a string import is too much hacky).

Repetitive doesn't mean it has to take lot of space. Tests are a cross between
code and documentation, and both are better not too mu

Heavy unit testing and documenting everything adds up. The implementation isn't
all that small either, but it's the unit tests and ddoc comments which really
increase the size. Most of

It contains too-much-repetitive code like:

FracSec.from!"msecs"(999)).dayOfGregorianCal, 733_985);

After some discussion on the runtime list, it was decided that core.time and
std.datetime should share their Duration type, so I created time.d as a
prospective core.time and moved or copied datetime's Duration and any other
types or functions that it needed to time.d
