THe msec portion of the returned result is actually in floating SECONDS value. If it was in microseconds it would be an integer, not starting with "0.". As the example code shows it is a floating seconds value. Test script: --------------- echo microtime(); Expected result: ---------------- I expect (based on documentation) a result like: 965841 1382538279 Actual result: -------------- I actually get: 0.96584100 1382538279 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65951&edit=1
