@tarekgh this may be a product issue, not benchmark issue (the NuGet package got updated 3 years ago in #1891)

@adamsitnik I have no idea what you are talking about :-) do you expect any action from my side? or is it related to anything I changed in the runtime?

[adamsitnik]

I have no idea what you are talking about

One of the benchmarks from performance repo started failing without changes in the benchmark themselves:

System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException: Ambiguous match found for 'System.TimeSpan System.TimeSpan FromSeconds(Int64)'.

I was wondering whether we have made any breaking change in dotnet/runtime or it's just a bug in the JIL serializer. I just wanted to get your confirmation that it's not a product (TimeSpan) bug.

[tarekgh]

@adamsitnik yes, we have added overloads in TimeSpan which takes long type parameters. Now, you need to be specific if you are passing double or long arguments.
