Monotonic clocks.

Timeouts

exception Timeout
val with_timeout : _ clock -> float -> (unit -> ('a, 'e) result) -> ('a, [> `Timeout ] as 'e) result

with_timeout clock d fn runs fn () but cancels it after d seconds.

val with_timeout_exn : _ clock -> float -> (unit -> 'a) -> 'a

with_timeout_exn clock d fn runs fn () but cancels it after d seconds, raising exception Timeout.

module Timeout : sig ... end

Timeout values.
