[okl4-developer] timer shortest time request

Hi Sergio, okl4.org,

About time remaining time quantum calculation:

What I initially suspected seems to be true: It doesnt´t really decrement
every microsecond as stated on the OKL programming manual, which led into my
confusion, actually recalculation happens every hardwired TIMER_TICK_LENGTH,
correct?

Sergio, I find both of your papers very very interesting, is there somewhere
I can get your lltimer so I can compare it against iguana´s timer server?.

Thank you very much,


Jorge
