Overview

Package mclock is a wrapper for a monotonic clock source.

mclock package provides a Now() function which returns the current time in nanoseconds from a monotonic clock in Duration type. The returned time is based on some arbitrary platform-specific point in the past. The returned time is guaranteed to increase monotonically at a constant rate, unlike time.Now() from the Go standard library, which may slow down, speed up, jump forward or backward, due to NTP activity or leap seconds.
