Timestamp precision

Hello, I am capturing with dumpcap or tcpdump on a Linux machine. Can someone provide me with some information/link(s) on a) how precise the timestamps on an average Linux PC are b) whether there are ways to improve the precision (OS wise or code wise) c) a way of determining the timestamp precision of a given machine d) what I should really have asked ;-) What I'm interested in is not so much the absolute timestamp but the precision of the delta between packets captured on the same interface. Thanks Jörg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
