Favorite packages for benchmarking?
|

| There are lots of packages for date-time computations. What is the best one
for timing computations for benchmarks? I'm thinking I want to fetch the
time in 64 bit format instead of year, mo, day, hour, min, sec, nano seconds
(which is what most of the date-time packages do). That should make
subtraction faster. After I subtract two absolute times, then I want to
display them in seconds.
Thanks,
Siegfried

also check out 'perldoc -f times'
