<function>microtime</function> returns the current Unix timestamp with

microseconds. This function is only available on operating systems that

support the gettimeofday() system call.

By default, <function>microtime</function> returns a <type>string</type> in
|
|
the form "msec sec", where <literal>sec</literal> is the number of seconds
|
|
since the Unix epoch (0:00:00 January 1,1970 GMT), and <literal>msec</literal>
|
|
measures microseconds that have elapsed since <literal>sec</literal>
|
|
and is also expressed in seconds.
|

</para>
|

<para>
|
|
If <parameter>get_as_float</parameter> is set to &true;, then
|
|
<function>microtime</function> returns a <type>float</type>, which
|
|
represents the current time in seconds since the Unix epoch accurate to the
|
|
nearest microsecond.
