+ * Returns the current value of a nanosecond-precise system timer.
+ * The value of the timer is an offset relative to some arbitrary fixed
+ * time, which may be in the future (making the value negative). This
+ * method is useful for timing events where nanosecond precision is
+ * required. This is achieved by calling this method before and after the

+ * <code>... <emph>event code</emph> ...</code><br />
+ * <code>long endTime = System.nanoTime();</code><br />
+ * <code>long duration = endTime - startTime;</code><br />
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Note that the value is only nanosecond-precise, and not accurate; there
+ * is no guarantee that the difference between two values is really a
+ * nanosecond. Also, the value is prone to overflow if the offset
+ * exceeds 2^63.
