Maybe you are interested by the library on the review schedule Boost.Chrono.

The library can be downloaded from http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=chrono.zip&directory=System& and the documentation is online on the sandbox http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/chrono/libs/chrono/doc/html/index.html.

The library provides the operator/() you are looking for, but on a generic duration type. Please let me know if this responds to your needs or whatever is missing from your point of view.

From what I read from the docs this seems to fit quite well. I did not have the time to actually test this in my project so far, but this is a library I'll keep watching and I'll try out, when I find the time.

Thanks for your message,
Norbert
