Question and thought

1. I am really sorry 🙏, but I can't put snapshot build into the production.
   Could you please make a release with all those changes since 6.2.6?

2. Please see Netty
   io.netty.util.concurrent.AbstractScheduledEventExecutor#defaultCurrentTimeNanos
   they use the same technic I have described in "timer memory optimization"

    /**
     * Get the current time in nanoseconds by this executor's clock. This is not the same as {@link System#nanoTime()}
     * for two reasons:
     *
     * <ul>
     *     <li>We apply a fixed offset to the {@link System#nanoTime() nanoTime}</li>
     *     <li>Implementations (in particular EmbeddedEventLoop) may use their own time source so they can control time
     *     for testing purposes.</li>
     * </ul>
     */
    protected long getCurrentTimeNanos() {
        return defaultCurrentTimeNanos();
    }

static long defaultCurrentTimeNanos() {
        return System.nanoTime() - START_TIME;
    }

After it, you have positive, small, ever-increasing nanoTime :-)
You can compare them with < and > without obscure subtraction technic.

BTW: My PR vert-x3/vertx-awesome#189 to add SmallRye Fault Tolerance to Vert.x Awesome collection

SmallRye Fault Tolerance is on the front page https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-awesome !

It is time to publish a release (or at least a release candidate) 😅🙏🥂

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't have time to attend to this last week. I was busy with other things. I don't feel I'm ready to publish a final 6.3.0, but a release candidate sounds reasonable.

[Ladicek]

6.3.0-RC1 is on its way to Central, it typically doesn't take more than 15 minutes or so.

@Ladicek Any news about micrometer metrics in standalone mode and release version? 🙏

[Ladicek]

Not yet, unfortunately. The past few months, I've been busy with the upcoming CDI 4.1 release, but now that it's nearly done, I should have more time for other things. Fingers crossed :-)

[magicprinc]

I see: you have developed standalone metrics support. 🔥
I am looking forward to RC :-) 🙏🚀

[Ladicek]

6.3.0-RC2 is on its way to Maven Central. Closing this issue, as all requests here have been addressed.
