* A class for retrieving an estimated indication of the current time.
* Very fast since the field is updated less frequently and only updated occasionally.
* Should be cachable by the CPU and the cache will only be invalidated when it is updated.
* Thanks MESI!
*
* CAVEAT The time is not guaranteed to always increase (can move backwards) if there
* are multiple VoltNetwork's present in the process.
