Nicholas Riley <com-python-b...@sabi.net> added the comment: According to http://juliusdavies.ca/posix_clocks/clock_realtime_linux_faq.html, CLOCK_REALTIME can go backwards. CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW is best where available (like QueryPerformanceFrequency / mach_absolute_time) and CLOCK_MONOTONIC is pretty good.
So I have updated both the docs for time.monotonic and time.wallclock to hopefully better explain things... may need to be another issue here too. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24809/monotonic-doc.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14277> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
