|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.Nm
|
||
|
utility
|
||
|
executes and
|
||
|
times
|
||
|
.Ar command .
|
||
|
After the command finishes,
|
||
|
.Nm
|
||
|
writes the total elapsed time (wall clock time),
|
||
|
.Pq Dq real ,
|
||
|
the CPU time spent executing
|
||
|
.Ar command
|
||
|
at user level
|
||
|
.Pq Dq user ,
|
||
|
and the CPU time spent executing in the operating system kernel
|
||
|
.Pq Dq sys ,
|
||
|
to the standard error stream.
|
||
|
Times are reported in seconds.

.Sh BUGS
|
||
|
The granularity of seconds on microprocessors is crude and
|
||
|
can result in times being reported for CPU usage which are too large by
|
||
|
a second.
