We've gone off at a tangent about Windows timing etc. Pretty much over now.


According to the docs for time.clock(), "On Windows, this function returns
wall-clock seconds elapsed since the first call to this function, as a floating
point number, based on the Win32 function QueryPerformanceCounter(). The
resolution is typically better than one microsecond."

Depending on whether you really meant "accuracy" above, and
on other things, this is either irrelevant, or contradicts
your first statement...

No contradiction. Python (from what you write above) implements time.clock() differently from the CRT clock() (which I had assumed Python would call for simplicity). Hence the differing results.
