About these units
Millisecond (ms). A millisecond is one thousandth of a second, the typical scale of computer response times and camera flashes. Network latency and frame durations are measured in milliseconds.
Day (d). A day equals 24 hours or 86,400 seconds, approximating one rotation of the Earth. Calendars, deadlines and project plans are built on days.
