获得当前系统时间毫秒的最佳方法是什么?

这基本上和@TristanLorach发布的答案是一样的,只是为Swift 3重新编码:

   public static func currentTimeMillis() -> Int64 {
      var darwinTime : timeval = timeval(tv_sec: 0, tv_usec: 0)
      gettimeofday(&darwinTime, nil)
      return (Int64(darwinTime.tv_sec) * 1000) + Int64(darwinTime.tv_usec / 1000)
   }

其他回答

let timeInMiliSecDate = Date()
let timeInMiliSec = Int (timeInMiliSecDate.timeIntervalSince1970 * 1000)
print(timeInMiliSec)

我在iPhone 4S和iPad 3(发行版本)上测试了所有其他答案。CACurrentMediaTime的开销最小。timeIntervalSince1970比其他的要慢得多,可能是由于NSDate实例化开销,尽管对于许多用例来说可能无关紧要。

如果您希望开销最少,并且不介意添加Quartz Framework依赖项,我建议您使用CACurrentMediaTime。或者gettimeofday(如果可移植性对您来说是优先考虑的)。

iPhone 4 s

CACurrentMediaTime: 1.33 µs/call
gettimeofday: 1.38 µs/call
[NSDate timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate]: 1.45 µs/call
CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent: 1.48 µs/call
[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]: 4.93 µs/call

iPad 3

CACurrentMediaTime: 1.25 µs/call
gettimeofday: 1.33 µs/call
CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent: 1.34 µs/call
[NSDate timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate]: 1.37 µs/call
[[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970]: 3.47 µs/call

到目前为止,我发现gettimeofday在iOS (iPad)上是一个很好的解决方案,当你想执行一些间隔评估(比如帧速率,渲染帧的计时……):

#include <sys/time.h>
struct timeval time;
gettimeofday(&time, NULL);
long millis = (time.tv_sec * 1000) + (time.tv_usec / 1000);

   }
// Timestamp after converting to milliseconds.

NSString * timeInMS = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%lld", [@(floor([date timeIntervalSince1970] * 1000)) longLongValue]];
