If you have control over starting the program then "time" will probaby suffice.
time - time a simple command or give resource usage
DESCRIPTION
The time command runs the specified program command with the given
arguments. When command finishes, time writes a message to standard
output giving timing statistics about this program run. These statis-
tics consist of (i) the elapsed real time between invocation and ter-
mination, (ii) the user CPU time (the sum of the tms_utime and
tms_cutime values in a struct tms as returned by times(2)), and (iii)
the system CPU time (the sum of the tms_stime and tms_cstime values in
a struct tms as returned by times(2)).
