On Windows, time.clock() was implemented with QueryPerformanceCounter(). This
function became time.perf_counter() in Python 3.4. time.clock() was removed.
Use time.get_clock_info('perf_counter') ;-)
The PEP 418 introduces new well defined clocks, since time.clock() was not
portable.
perf_counter and process_time have very different properties. process_time is
stopped when the process sleeps, for example.
