I confess that I don't understand what you're trying to do.

core.time.MonoTime.currTime.ticks.nsecs.total!"nsecs"

makes no sense at all. And doing the same thing with TickDuration would have
been just as broken. currSystemTick returns the current tick of the system's
monotonic clock as a TickDuration. It is _not_ a duration but a point in time
(which is part of why TickDuration is being phased out - it's used both as a
duration and a time point). So, converting it to nanoseconds is meaningless.
And converting MonoTime to nanoseconds is just as meaningless. It would be like
trying to convert 2016-01-04T12:00:07 to nanoseconds, only 2016-01-04T12:00:07
is the wall clock time not the time from the monotonic clock (which is just in
ticks).

Please read the documentation for MonoTime. Based on what you're trying to do
here, you do not appear to understand either TickDuration or MonoTime.
