[c-nsp] interpretation of sysTrafficPeakTime

According to the cisco-stack-mib:

sysTrafficPeakTime OBJECT-TYPE
         SYNTAX        TimeTicks
         MAX-ACCESS    read-only
         STATUS        current
DESCRIPTION   "The time (in hundredths of a second) since the peak traffic meter value
occurred."
         ::= { systemGrp 20 }


Can someone please interpret the above description?


I'm thinking of 2 different values here:

1) current time (present) <=== peak time (past)     : the value should increase as time passes by (*)

2) power-on/reset time (past) ===> peak time (past) : the value should stay constant as time passes by (*)


If i was to interpret it, i would probably choose the 1st one, but according to my sample snmp outputs on some 
6500s/7600s the 2nd seems to be the correct one.

(*) having only one peak traffic time
