That's why I just propose to switch it to time.time(), which surely is available on each and every Python version and implementation. If there's a concern that some implementation may have only 1-second precision, then: 1) well, pystone has limits to its "scientificity", it's more like quick-run-anywhere, there's pybench for "real" testing (it's maintained and supported I hope); 2) number of iteratations can be bumped from 50K to 200K-500K.
