Very interesting. Have you made measurements to see how many times you lost one of your cycles. I made these kind of measurements on Linux using the real-time clock with C and it was very interesting ( http://www.gael-varoquaux.info/computers/real-time ). I want to redo them with Python, as I except to have similar results with Python. It would be interesting to see how Windows fits in the picture (I know nothing about Windows, so I really can't make measurements on Windows).
