How to get fractions of seconds?

[Ramon J. Castillo]

I see it useful too,  when specifying for example "response_window" that instead 
of be 1 "One second" could be 1200 as in "twelve hundred milliseconds".
 I have found some devices that time out in 3 seconds , in these cases you still 
want to retry at least once . Of course here the network delay is kept under 
 300 milliseconds  end to end.

  This is impossible.

  The dates and elapsed times in RADIUS have a resolution down to one
second, but no more.

  It's possible to "fake" adding milliseconds, but they will bear little
relation to the actual session times.  Network delays, processing
delays, etc. will all affect the results.
