If there were a faster way to do strftime, strftime would probably be doing it... (As an aside, "C++" doesn't usually mean "faster".)
If it needs to be done thousands of times per second, why bother with strftime, no human can read it that fast, just store time in microseconds.

Strange behaviour of the strftime() function from gawk (3.1.5):
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 3600)}'
> 02:00:00
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 0)}'
> 01:00:00
Obviously something with DST but I can not figure out why? To me 3600 epoch seconds remains 01:00, DST or not.

and when i use another option then no memory leak like

Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT(3pm)
NAME
Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT - Convert Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT <-> strftime Format Strings
SYNOPSIS
use Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT qw(oracle2posix posix2oracle);
my $strptime = oracle2posix($NLS_DATE_FORMAT);
$NLS_DATE_FORMAT = posix2oracle($strftime);
DESCRIPTION
Convert Oracle's NLS_DATE_FORMAT string into a strptime format string, or the reverse.
Functions
oracle2posix
Takes an Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT string and converts it into formatting string compatible with "strftime" or "strptime".
my $format = oracle2posix('YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'); # '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
Character sequences that should not be translated may be enclosed within double quotes, as specified in the Oracle documentation.
my $format = oracle2posix('YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SS'); # '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S'
posix2oracle
Takes a "strftime" or "strptime" formatting string and converts it into an Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT string. It is possible to create
strings which Oracle will not accept as valid NLS_DATE_FORMAT strings.
my $format = posix2oracle('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'); # 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'
EXPORT
None by default. "oracle2posix" and "posix2oracle" when asked.
