Good point, but still, you are leaving the user with too much leverage on the underlying architecture, again from the OS’ perspective.

They way I’m considering this is, one could provide virtual time sources, removing the high resolution timers, where the OS has more of a coarse-grained timer. Not sure the implications, but if needed, one could add jitter or randomness ( Noise ) to the virtual timer values…

This would further prevent thread from running out of sync with the resto of the threads.

Further, one could also add a stack based shared memory model, LIFO would provide a highly predictable behavior from an application perspective. If you make it per process, the shared stack would then be confined to the application. No sure if possible ( haven given deep thought ) but the stacks could be confined to specific cache lines, removing the timing differences caused by cache contention…
