I was going throught the man pages for adjtime(2) on DECStation 5000
and found that the resolution on MIPS is 3.906ms and that on VAX is
10ms. The man page also goes on saying that the ticks of 9ms or 11ms
are used depending on the adjustment to be made. This only makes sense
for a VAX machine. Could anyone tell me what the rate of adjustment is
for a MIPS machine? 

Thanks.
