378186 - make history timestamps accurate to within 1 second

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Felix Miata]

Attachment: screenshot of history window showing bunched entries

I asked about this on Mon, 12 Mar 2007 13:00:24 -0500 in mozilla.dev.apps.seamonkey and got 0 responses. Reproducible on Linux trunk and OS/2 1.8.1.x branch.

To reproduce:
1-open history window
2-set sort to date
3-open some folder with 10 or more URLs
4-open the first page in the list
5-as soon as the page begins to render anything at all, open next page in list
6-repeat 6 until URLs in the folder have all been opened once in current session

Actual behavior:
history entries are listed in bunches of 2-3 entries with identical timestamps with time gaps of 3-5 seconds between bunches

Expected behavior:
history entries are bunched with identical timestamps only when the pages were in fact opened the same second, leaving entries not opened the same second with unduplicated timestamps

SM2 made this worse, as it doesn't even show seconds in the history window.

Keyword "sm1p" for Seamonkey 1 parity bugs not present, so setting as "regression".

Request still valid, no seconds in History window
