### Use waitable timers on Microsoft Windows
|
||||
|
||||
The `epicsEventWaitWithTimeout` and `epicsThreadSleep` functions have
|
||||
been changed to use waitable timers. On Windows 10 version 1803 or higher
|
||||
they will use high resolution timers for more consistent timing.
|
||||
|
||||
See https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/scheduler-dev/c/0GlSPYreJeY
|
||||
for a comparison of the performance of different timers.
