Measure Process CPU and real time that an expression used.

Source: R/bench_time.R

Measure Process CPU and real time that an expression used.

bench_time(expr)

Arguments

expr

A expression to be timed.

Value

A bench_time object with two values.

  • process - The process CPU usage of the expression evaluation.

  • real - The wallclock time of the expression evaluation.

Details

On some systems (such as macOS) the process clock has lower precision than the realtime clock, as a result there may be cases where the process time is larger than the real time for fast expressions.

See also

bench_memory() To measure memory allocations for a given expression.

Examples

# This will use ~.5 seconds of real time, but very little process time.
bench_time(Sys.sleep(.5))
#> process    real 
#>  47.9µs 500.6ms
