STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com> added the comment: time.monotonic() has 3 implementations:
* Windows: QueryPerformanceCounter() with QueryPerformanceFrequency() * Mac OS X: mach_absolute_time() with mach_timebase_info() * UNIX: clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) or clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) QueryPerformanceFrequency() returns the frequency "in counts per second" according to the doc. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms644905(v=vs.85).aspx mach_absolute_time() with mach_timebase_info() returns a number of seconds, but Python uses *1e-9. clock_gettime() uses a timespec structure and Python uses *1e-9. It looks like to mention that time.monotonic() unit is seconds. ---------- nosy: +haypo _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14277> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
