Or, please forget my comment, I watched the first 4 items of os.times(). I didn't notice the difference of the 5th item, os.times()[4]. The bad news is that only the first two items of os.times() are filled on Windows :-( I don't think that Python 2.7 provides a monotonic clock on Windows. static PyObject * os_times_impl(PyModuleDef *module) { #ifdef MS_WINDOWS FILETIME create, exit, kernel, user; HANDLE hProc; hProc = GetCurrentProcess(); GetProcessTimes(hProc, &create, &exit, &kernel, &user); /* The fields of a FILETIME structure are the hi and lo part of a 64-bit value expressed in 100 nanosecond units. 1e7 is one second in such units; 1e-7 the inverse. 429.4967296 is 2**32 / 1e7 or 2**32 * 1e-7. */ return build_times_result( (double)(user.dwHighDateTime*429.4967296 + user.dwLowDateTime*1e-7), (double)(kernel.dwHighDateTime*429.4967296 + kernel.dwLowDateTime*1e-7), (double)0, (double)0, (double)0); ... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
