Old timestamp method used time() * 1000 [which on many systems is a float (and only accurate to the second)] & converting that into a string, resulting in incorrect values:

$timestamp = strval(time()*1000); // example: '1.45952654E+12'

New method creates accurate, correct values:

$timestamp = sprintf('%.0f', array_sum(explode(' ', microtime())) * 1000); // example: '1459526540161'

Instead of using microtime(true) to generate a millisecond timestamp, switched to a more accurate microtime() method (although for milliseconds, microtime(true) and microtime() methods were always the same in my testing).
Left it off in previous commits and shouldn't have.
