RE: Timerd not working properly?

The problem is that timerd is imprecise and unreliable for "precision" timing; it would be still acceptable an error of +-0.2, but right now it's bigger.
Consider this, on a vanilla sphere (default scripts, empty world) running on a i7:

Code:

13:(funzioni.scp,14)timerd: 6245; it should trigger at 6260

13:1:'dnolok' commands 'timerdtest 15'=1

13:(funzioni.scp,7)timerd fired: 6263

13:(funzioni.scp,14)timerd: 6283; it should trigger at 6298

13:1:'dnolok' commands 'timerdtest 15'=1

13:(funzioni.scp,7)timerd fired: 6303

13:(funzioni.scp,14)timerd: 6333; it should trigger at 6348

13:1:'dnolok' commands 'timerdtest 15'=1

13:(funzioni.scp,7)timerd fired: 6353

13:(funzioni.scp,14)timerd: 6361; it should trigger at 6376

13:1:'dnolok' commands 'timerdtest 15'=1

13:(funzioni.scp,7)timerd fired: 6383

In this case the problem may not be the performance.
