Re: timefmt does not have provision for milliseconds

[Vijayaraj AK <vij...@ya...>]

Well, the data need not be generated every
millisecond.  And yeah as you point out, it is not
logged for hours. I want to plot lets say, 20-30min
duration log of data sampled at 20-30ms interval. 

To make the plot look good and ease of reference, hour
is also logged and displayed, though it might not be
useful. 

As for the usefulness, I work for Qualcomm and we
collect extensive amount of data and they are all in
milli-second granularity. 

As for now, I just convert the timestamp into a number
"seconds.milliseconds" and plot data vs xxx.000
number. It serves my purpose. It would just make
plotting easier if a format was created that takes
care of this. 

Thanks for you attention!
Vijay.
