Well, you have a guess about the time updates that may well tell you
all. Because of that guess, you might want to try:
oldtime = time.time()
time.sleep(1)
newtime = time.time()
delta = newtime - oldtime
if not .5 < delta < 2:
print 'delta=%s, from=%s, time=%s' % (
delta, time.strftime('%Y_%m_%d_%Hh_%Mm_%Ss',
time.gmtime(oldtime)),
time.strftime('%Y_%m_%d_%Hh_%Mm_%Ss',
time.gmtime(newtime)))
to see if you get time running backwards as well.
