Get the number of microseconds elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC without fear of clock drift
npm install relative-microtimeThis module returns the number of microseconds elapsed since January 1,
1970 00:00:00 UTC.
Note: The returned number of microseconds are locked relative to a
specific time and is therefore not subject to clock drift. This is
contrary to how Date.now() operates, whos return value (in
milliseconds) is always based on the system clock.
``
npm install relative-microtime --save
`js
const timer = require('relative-microtime')()
const milli = Date.now()
const micro = timer()
console.log(milli) // 1537446194859
console.log(micro) // 1537446194859132
`
Sync the microtime clock to the UTC wall clock.
Returns a timer function synced with the UTC time when microtime()
was called. Any clock drift that happens after the call to
will not influence the returned .
Returns a Number` representing the microseconds elapsed since the UNIX
epoch.
