""" systimes() user and system timer implementations for use by
pybench.
This module implements various different strategies for measuring
performance timings. It tries to choose the best available method
based on the platforma and available tools.
On Windows, it is recommended to have the Mark Hammond win32
package installed. Alternatively, the Thomas Heller ctypes
packages can also be used.
On Unix systems, the standard resource module provides the highest
resolution timings. Unfortunately, it is not available on all Unix
platforms.
If no supported timing methods based on process time can be found,
the module reverts to the highest resolution wall-clock timer
instead. The system time part will then always be 0.0.
The module exports one public API:
def systimes():
Return the current timer values for measuring user and system
time as tuple of seconds (user_time, system_time).

# Note: Please keep this module compatible to Python 1.5.2.
#
# TODOs:
#
# * Add ctypes wrapper for new clock_gettime() real-time POSIX APIs;
# these will then provide nano-second resolution where available.
#
# * Add a function that returns the resolution of systimes()
# values, ie. systimesres().
