 Reporter:  viboes            |       Owner:  viboes      
     Type:  Feature Requests  |      Status:  new         
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |   Component:  chrono      
  Version:  Boost 1.47.0      |    Severity:  Optimization
 Keywords:                    |  
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 The posix implementation of process real cpu clock uses the times()
 function. The resolution is better if we use

   ::clock_gettime( CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, &ts );

 on platforms for which the CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID is supported.
