What's the difference between time.clock() and time.time()
(and please don't say clock() is the CPU clock and time() is the actual
time because that doesn't help me at all
I'm trying to benchmark some function calls for Zope project and when I
use t0=time.clock(); foo(); print time.clock()-t0
I get much smaller values than when I use time.clock() (most of them
0.0 but some 0.01)
When I use time.time() I get values like 0.0133562088013,
0.00669002532959 etc.
To me it looks like time.time() gives a better measure (at least from a
statistical practical point of view).
