          Issue ID: 18204
           Summary: Use MonoTime for timing of profile tracing runtime
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: druntime
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: johanengelen weka.io

Current -profile code does not use a known clock for non-Windows platforms,
because it uses it implements its own low-level clock calls in src/rt/trace.d.
And timing information is only available for Windows (seconds instead of
cycles).
Instead, it could use MonoTime to get accurate timings on all supported
platforms.
