That seems like a bad idea; it would be too easy to confuse with (or misspell
as) time.time().

Out of the big synonym list Guido posted, I rather like time.stopwatch() - it
makes it more explicit that the purpose of the function is to measure intervals,
rather identifying absolute points in time.

Cheers,
