Isn't there a way to obtain a better resolution? 

Not that I know.

The RTC has a resolution on 1 second AFAIR. This means that there will
be an error of up to 1 second after resume. If you run NTP, it will
ultimately be corrected (I believe) but it may take a fairly long time
given the loop bandwidth of NTP, which will also probably write for a
while crap values into its drift file (/var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift on Debian 
but location varies with distribution).

But then, people suspending/resuming laptops know what to (or not to)
expect I suppose :-)
