val to_span : t -> Time.Span.t
Time.t is precise to approximately 0.24us in 2014. If to_span converts to the closest Time.Span.t, we have stability problems: converting back yields a different t, sometimes different enough to have a different external representation, because the conversion back and forth crosses a rounding boundary.

To stabilize conversion, we treat Time.t as having 1us precision: to_span and of_span both round to the nearest 1us.

Around 135y magnitudes, Time.Span.t no longer has 1us resolution. At that point, to_span and of_span raise.

The concern with stability is in part due to an earlier incarnation of Timing_wheel that had surprising behavior due to rounding of floating-point times. Timing_wheel was since re-implemented to use integer Time_ns, and to treat floating-point Times as equivalence classes according to the Time_ns that they round to. See Timing_wheel_float for details.

val of_span : Time.Span.t -> t
include Robustly_comparable
val to_int63_ns : t -> Core_kernel.Std.Int63.t
Fast, implemented as the identity function.
val of_int63_ns : Core_kernel.Std.Int63.t -> t
Fast, implemented as the identity function.
val to_int_ns : t -> int
Will raise on 32-bit platforms with spans corresponding to contemporary Time_ns.now. Consider to_int63_ns instead.
