2 years ago I'm pretty sure the lifetime values for both the security context and credential are measured in seconds. For example gss_acquire_cred time_req states
Integer, read, optional number of seconds that credentials should remain valid. Specify GSS_C_INDEFINITE to request that the credentials have the maximum permitted lifetime.
The gss_init_sec_context call also mentions the same. Will have to update the documentation when I get a chance. Feel free to send through a PR if you find some time.

I cannot find a single mention of a unit of time in the documentation of the high level API.
E.g. I can acquire a credential and I know that it has a lifetime of "36000"; a value which is totally useless because I don't know if it's 36000 seconds, milliseconds, minutes, hours, millenia?
