Hi,
I am looking for a way to time scripts, how long they take to execute.
That has appeared in the list before, but now I can't find it.
I could write it myself, but I bet it exists already.
Are you referring to time(1)?
$ time ./testmem
Out of memory at 2802 M
real 0m0.020s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m0.017s
Aha! I am and it is a package that I did not have installed ;-)
Just remember that if you run time without a patch qualification, you
get the shell's builtin time function. If you want to use the time
binary, then be sure to specify /usr/bin/time.

I ran right into this when I did not specify /usr/bin/time.
However... I do not think time is what I want. What I want is a
chronometer function that works just like one: you click and it shows
0:00, click and it starts running, click and it shows how far it got...
I wrote a command to do that and keep the elapsed time in a environment
variable, but "setenv("CHRONO", msecs.data(), 1));" does not set the
variable "$CHRONO", so I have to rethink.
