Actually I want to have a rough approximation. A process that takes one day and a half it is good to send me how many hours it gets. It is not a problem to convert the values of system.error the major is that I am not sure If I should use the user or elapsed time for getting an estimation of how much it takes once I press enter theh process to finish A
