steady_clock:
mac = mach_absolute_time posix = clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) win = QueryPerformanceCounter
I read that QueryPerformanceCounter is no so monotonic, and GetTickCount is preferred. Is it true?
high_resolution_clock:
* = { steady_clock, if available system_clock, otherwise }
On Windows, I propose to use QueryPerformanceCounter() for time.hires() and GetTickCount() for time.monotonic(). See the PEP for other OSes. Victor
