<p>The timer attribute calculates the time passed since its construction and returns it on value acquisition. The attribute value type is <code class="computeroutput">boost::posix_time::time_duration</code>.</p>
<p>On Windows platform there are two implementations of the attribute. The default one is more precise but a bit slower. This version uses <code class="computeroutput">QueryPerformanceFrequence</code>/<code class="computeroutput">QueryPerformanceCounter</code> API to calculate elapsed time.</p>
<p>There are known problems with these functions when used with some CPUs, notably AMD Athlon with Cool'n'Quiet technology enabled. See the following links for more information and possible resolutions:</p>

<p>In case if none of these solutions apply, you are free to define <code class="computeroutput">BOOST_LOG_NO_QUERY_PERFORMANCE_COUNTER</code> macro to fall back to another implementation based on Boost.DateTime. </p>
