//! High-performance timing utilities (quanta 쓰는 개빠른 시간 측정)
//! 캐싱해뒀다가 그거 갖다쓰는거임
//! This module provides high-precision timing facilities using the quanta crate.
//! It configures the "recent time" feature that provides ultra-low-overhead access
//! to a slightly-delayed global time, which can be 4-10x faster than direct time queries.
