* portable high-precision interval timing
*
* This file provides an abstraction layer to hide portability issues in
- * interval timing. On Unix we use clock_gettime() if available, else
- * gettimeofday(). On Windows, gettimeofday() gives a low-precision result
- * so we must use QueryPerformanceCounter() instead. These macros also give
- * some breathing room to use other high-precision-timing APIs.

* The basic data type is instr_time, which all callers should treat as an
* opaque typedef. instr_time can store either an absolute time (of
