This works until you can run 65K processes per microsecond or 2G process
per microsecond if the PID is 32 bits ... we'll probably need quantum
computers before that would break ;-)

Could you clarify? There is no HiRes module in CPAN. Here's what I
see:
DateTime::HiRes
Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Epoch::HiRes
Time::HiRes
Time::HiRes::Value
I've been using Time::HiRes, which does not have a time() call but ships
in the debian perl-modules package.
