(I've read the five or so following messages you and Bengt have posted, but not in detail so I'm not sure where you're going with all this, but... )
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.
