- _c_l_o_c_k returns the amount of CPU time used since the first call to _c_l_o_c_k.
- The unit time of clock (microseconds) is indicated in the macro
- CLOCKS_PER_SEC found in the file <_t_i_m_e._h>. The time reported is the sum
- of the user and system times of the calling process and its terminated
- child processes for which it has executed _w_a_i_t(2), _p_c_l_o_s_e(3S), or
- _s_y_s_t_e_m(3S).
-
- The resolution of the clock is 10 milliseconds on IRIS workstations.

- times(2), wait(2), popen(3S), system(3S).

- The implementation of _c_l_o_c_k conflicts with the definition of the routine
- found in the ANSI C Standard. The discrepancy will be transparent,
- however, so long as programs which adhere to that Standard use the
- difference in two invocations of _c_l_o_c_k for timing information, as
- recommended by the Standard.
-
- The value returned by _c_l_o_c_k is defined in microseconds for compatibility
- with systems that have CPU clocks with much higher resolution. Because
- of this, the value returned will wrap around after accumulating only 2147
- seconds of CPU time (about 36 minutes).
