Time/TimeTick version 0.01 =============================== 0.01 - Sat Aug 7 15:01:39 PDT 2004 PURPOSE ------- Time::Timetick provides a quick and convenient way of instrumenting a program to find out how long it took to reach various points. Just use the module and call the timetick() function whenever you want to mark the time at a point in your program. When the program ends, a report will be output giving the times at which each point was reached. To find out more, either install the module and use the command: $ perldoc Time::TimeTick or, if you haven't installed it yet, type: $ perldoc lib/Time/TimeTick.pm INSTALLATION ------------ Use Module::Build: $ perl Build.PL $ ./Build $ ./Build test $ ./Build install but if you happen to do it the old way: $ perl Makefile.PL $ make $ make test $ make install well then, the magic of Module::Build will make it work anyway. DEPENDENCIES ------------ Time::HiRes is highly desirable but not essential. (There again, if you don't have it, just what sort of a hick setup are you running, anyway? :-) It also helps to have IO::Capture::Stdout for testing, but is not essential.
