See my comment on
https://codereview.chromium.org/2472163003/diff/100001/chrome/browser/page_lo...:
Can you use `TimeTicks::Now() - TimeTicks()` (and maybe return milliseconds
straight away if that is what Java is also going to use)?

[droger, 2016/11/18 10:23:21]

This is a code move, and this function is already used by other code. So I can't
change the unit.

I can do the difference with TimeTicks() though, it should not break existing
code.

just for my own knowledge, what does this do / why is it needed?

[Bernhard Bauer, 2016/11/17 16:14:28]

This is a generated function in TimeUtils_jni.h that registers the address of
GetTimeTicksNowUs() so it can be called from Java. 

[droger, 2016/11/18 10:23:21]

This is some black magic needed to generate the binding between Java and C++, so
that GetTimeTicksNowUs() can be called from Java.
