There are a few calls to gettimeofday() through the event system to retrieve the current time. It would be nice if the backend controlled this. This way backends like SDL could have complete control over it and use SDL_GetTicks() or similar.

Same goes for gp_time_stamp()

Sounds reasonable, I can look into this when I have some time and as usual patches are welcomed.

See 483cf4d now only gp_time_stamp() has to be implemented for a given platform, which simplifies the problem quite a bit. Now the question is how to make the gp_time_stamp() implementation selectable. I did make changes in 6d1b1ba so that it's picked only on os=linux but it's still not defined per backend. I will think about how to fix this properly.

That's really cool. Thanks so much. So depending on which time implementation we're looking for, it would use its own gp_time_stamp() definition. Good thinking.
