It shows hundredths of a second; your reaction when pressing is the main error.

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Press Start or the space bar to begin timing. Press Lap or the L key to save a split: each lap shows its own time and the running total. Press Stop (or space again) to pause; you can resume from the same time. Press Reset or R to clear everything. The time is calculated from the moment you started, so switching tabs does not affect it.
