About

Timestamp getter wrapping (in order of preference) process.hrtime.bigint(), performance.now() or Date.now().

[!NOTE] The functions in this package have been extracted from @thi.ng/bench.

This package provides the following functions:

now() attempts to use high-res ES BigInt timestamps (in Node via process.hrtime.bigint()), or falls back to performance.now(), or lacking that, uses Date.now(). In all cases, returns a (possibly rounded) nanosec-scale timestamp, either as bigint or number.
timeDiff() function can be used to compute the difference between two such timestamp and return it as milliseconds.
asMillis() takes a duration (either a number or bigint) in nanosec-scale and converts it to a JS number in milliseconds
