Crate tokio_os_timer

This crate provides timers for use with tokio that rely on OS mechanisms for timer management rather than a separate timing mechanism like tokio-timer. This comes at somewhat increased overhead if you have many timers, but allows the timers to have any granularity supported by your operating system where tokio-timer can only support timers with a granularity of 1ms.

The current implementation relies on timerfd_create(2), and will thus only work on platforms whose libc contains that call (probably just Linux at the moment).

Structs

Delay	A future that completes a specified amount of time from its creation.
Interval	A stream that yields once every time a fixed amount of time elapses.
