+The ``_lsprof`` module now uses internal timer same to ``time.perf_counter()`` by default.
+``gettimeofday(2)`` was used on Unix. New timer has better resolution on most Unix
+platforms and timings are no longer impacted by system clock updates since ``perf_counter()``
+is monotonic. Patch by Inada Naoki.
