So would "pow(10, frac_seconds_resolution )-1" be the maximum expected value of fractional_seconds_count (excepting perhaps leap-microseconds or something)? I think this could bear a little further explanation than just "increments of 10 only". Given that it is a short I assume its not the denominator itself, but the log10 of it. -- Caleb Epstein caleb dot epstein at gmail dot com
