This is a good possibility, that the clock is jumping ahead rather than that 200 seconds of actual real time is going during the time.sleep call. What happens if you replace the time.time call with something that reads the current time from an SNTP server (or equivalent) through a socket? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
