[Shootout-list] csharp timings

[Peter Hinely]

Hi,

I'm not quite sure I understand. There's no solution to the problem until
mono is fixed?  It sounds like there are two issues:
  1.  a timer resolution problem
  2.  a problem where the timing script is not measuring the execution
time of threads that mono spawns?

Regards,
Peter
