TIME PSAM/DAPDB Commands TIME
NAME
time - display timing information for the current program
SYNOPSIS
time
DESCRIPTION
The time command displays timing information, in units of
machine cycles, for the current program. Two timing statis-
tics are displayed, and these are as follows:-
Execution time The number of cycles used so far by the
current program. This value is not incre-
mented when the program is not taking up
milltime.
The Execution time includes cycles used by
the system in suspending and restarting the
program (e.g. in order to enter and leave
psam). The number of cycles used in this way
is zero on the simulator and an indeterminate
number (approximately 150) on the hardware.
Execution time difference
The difference (in cycles) between the
current Execution time and its value before
it was most recently incremented.
