Can you explain why you think this is the wrong behavior, and what operating system and version of Python you're using? from https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.perf_counter Return the value (in fractional seconds) of a performance counter, i.e. a clock with the highest available resolution to measure a short duration. It does include time elapsed during sleep and is system-wide. The reference point of the returned value is undefined, so that only the difference between the results of two calls is valid. Returning the uptime seems like acceptable behavior to me, since "the reference point ... is undefined". ---------- nosy: +Dennis Sweeney _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43585> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
