- GNU util to measure program resource use
- .description
- The `time' command runs another program, then displays information
- about the resources used by that program, collected by the system while
- the program was running. You can select which information is reported
- and the format in which it is shown, or have `time' save the information
- in a file instead of display it on the screen.
-
- The resources that `time' can report on fall into the general
- categories of time, memory, I/O, and IPC calls. Some systems do not
- provide much information about program resource use; `time' reports
- unavailable information as zero values.
