Comment (by Sébastien Barthélémy <barthelemy@…>):

 Replying to [comment:1 viboes]:

 boost doc says: "steady_clock class provides access to the '''system-
 wide''' steady clock."

 As far as I know, there is no promise in the standard that the
 steady_clock is system-wide. For instance the steady_clock epoch may be
 related to the process-creation.
