According to Apple's documentation, CLOCK_UPTIME_RAW corresponds to mach_absolute_time():

CPython is using mach_absolute_time() for its time.monotonic() implementation:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/f660567/Python/pytime.c#L7

time.monotonic() ought to be backed by the more appropriate mach_continuous_time() ("CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW"). Note it was introduced in macOS 10.12+:
