I'm using gettimeofday(), on OS X 10.3.6, to get the time resolution I need (milliseconds).

If I'm reading the documentation right, I should be getting time in UTC. However, I'm getting local time.

As I read the man page, you should get the local time in *tp, and the offset from UTC in *tzp.

Should gettimeofday() return local time?

Yup.

Hm, my reading of the Solaris, Linux and Mac OS X man pages is that the time returned should indeed be UTC ... the former two explicitly mention UTC, the Mac OS X page speaks of "current Greenwich time", which I would interpret as "old" UTC. ...?
