Not as bad a problem as we have with all these Daves on the network <Mills, Cheriton, Clark, Tennenhouse, Farber, Sincoskie, Piscitello, ....> but apparently enough to cause trouble. Personally, I'm a firm believer in getting our time down to the smallest clock tick we can. On a giganet, a one millisecond timer doesn't tell you a whole lot. You'd need a few megabits of congestion before you could be sure the timer was telling you something. Craig (Partridge)
