end_time

Lib.end_time : Timer.cpu_timer -> unit

Check a running timer, and print out how long it has been running.

An application end_time timer looks to see how long timer has been running, and prints out the elapsed runtime, garbage collection time, and system time.

Failure

Never fails.

Example

- val clock = start_time();
> val clock = <cpu_timer> : cpu_timer

- use "foo.sml";
> ... output omitted ...

- end_time clock;
runtime: 525.996s,    gctime: 0.000s,     systime: 525.996s.
> val it = () : unit

Comments

A start_time … end_time pair is for use when calling time would be clumsy, e.g., when multiple function applications are to be timed.
