[Haskell-cafe] getCPUTime ??

[Michael Benfield]

I'm new to Haskell. I'm apparently misunderstanding something here.

When I run this program:

---------
module Main where

import System.Posix
import System.CPUTime

printTime = getCPUTime >>= putStrLn . show

main = printTime >> sleep 5 >> printTime
---------

It produces this output:
1430000000000
1430000000000

or similar. In any case, both the numbers are the same. Should the 
second number not reflect a time 5 seconds later than the first? I've 
tried this with both GHC and Hugs, and both give me the same thing.

Thanks.
