New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at gmail.com>:

Python 3.3 supports the following clock identifiers:

 * CLOCK_REALTIME
 * CLOCK_MONOTONIC
 * CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
 * CLOCK_HIGHRES
 * CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
 * CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID

Linux has more clocks:

 * CLOCK_BOOTTIME
 * CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE
 * CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
 * CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM
 * CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM

FreeBSD has more clocks:

 * CLOCK_VIRTUAL
 * CLOCK_UPTIME, CLOCK_UPTIME_FAST, CLOCK_UPTIME_PRECISE
 * CLOCK_MONOTONIC_FAST, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_PRECISE
 * CLOCK_REALTIME_FAST, CLOCK_REALTIME_PRECISE
 * CLOCK_SECOND
 * CLOCK_PROF

CLOCK_BOOTTIME is useful is you would like to handle system suspend for example.
