First, thanks Erland for the answer!

I'm expecting them ...
Confused for me, was this:

Ok.
So ... that means for me as fallow:
The getdate() is not taking the current system time, only the buffered
SQLServer system time.
That means as well, that the time between changing system time,
writing into log (application) and calling procedure in DB, until this
position where the getdate() is called, MUST be shorter than a maximum
time of 3.33 ms.

Well, this is not I was thinking getdate() is doing:(
Is the current_timestamp function behaviour exactly in this way?
(probably yes, since in BOL says that this is the same as getdate())

Thank's Erland again for help.
