Returns a clock resolution as determined by POSIX function clock_getres():
Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_REALTIME) # => 1.0e-09
See Process.clock_gettime for the values of clock_id and unit.
Examples:
Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_microsecond) # => 0.001 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_millisecond) # => 1.0e-06 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_second) # => 1.0e-09 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :microsecond) # => 0 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :millisecond) # => 0 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :nanosecond) # => 1 Process.clock_getres(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :second) # => 0
In addition to the values for unit supported in Process.clock_gettime, this method supports :hertz, the integer number of clock ticks per second (which is the reciprocal of :float_second):
Process.clock_getres(:TIMES_BASED_CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :hertz) # => 100.0 Process.clock_getres(:TIMES_BASED_CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_second) # => 0.01
Accuracy: Note that the returned resolution may be inaccurate on some platforms due to underlying bugs. Inaccurate resolutions have been reported for various clocks including :CLOCK_MONOTONIC and :CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW on Linux, macOS, BSD or AIX platforms, when using ARM processors, or when using virtualization.
