Not that long. The system was working perfectly in 2012 and timevar2 has been a properly functioning variable since 2005 when it was elevated from server uptime/graal installation time and turned into a clone of the unix time.
Somebody has very recently messed with formatTimeString() (corrected it into EST) and timevar2 (off by 2120) and made them incorrect.
The classic timevar also sucks. It does not truly update every 5 seconds. If you implement a time system off of timevar, you will find the time it yields you being off by about 1 day every 6 months.
There is no reason that timevar2, which should just directly read out the unix time, is off. Needs fix.
