## Hrtime

While [`process.hrtime`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/process.html#processhrtimetime) high-resolution timer is available, it provides an inaccurate timer for compatibility only.

## Unsupported Features

The following `process` properties are currently entirely unsupported and return `undefined`: `binding`, `channel`, `connected`, `debugPort`, `dlopen`,
`exitCode`, `finalization`, `getActiveResourcesInfo`, `hasUncaughtExceptionCaptureCallback`, `kill`, `memoryUsage`, `noDeprecation`, `permission`,
`ref`, `release`, `report`, `resourceUsage`, `send`, `setUncaughtExceptionCaptureCallback`, `sourceMapsEnabled`, `threadCpuUsage`,
`throwDeprecation`, `traceDeprecation`, `unref`.

These unimplemented features may be feature-detected via conditional gating patterns like:

```js
if (process.dlopen) {
// use dlopen when available
}
```
