Frontend Performance Data – Gathering the Data W3C High Resolution Time – Monotonic Clock John Riviello – The Truth Behind Your Web App’s Performance 40 Why do we care? “Most systems run a daemon which regularly synchronizes the time. It is common for the clock to be tweaked a few milliseconds every 15-20 minutes. At that rate about 1% of 10 second intervals measured would be inaccurate.” Source: Tony Gentilcore http://gent.ilcore.com/2012/06/better-timer-for-javascript.html
