When measuring the performance of a Python or Python program, it is often required to keep precise count of interpreter tics and periodic checks.

Well... interpreter ticks only measures the number of opcodes executed, not the number of seconds elapsed. It's not a reliable performance measure at all, unless you want to measure ticking itself.
