technobard has contributed a Java tutorial on timing. Here is a little blurb from it ...
One of the most common questions I'm asked these days is "how long did it take to run" or the related "how long will it take to run". In every environment I work in, sooner or later I get around to figuring out how to do timings. In Java, I was hoping for something as simple as a stopwatch. You know, ready, set, CLICK........and..CLICK. 3.65 seconds..or something like that.
Thanks technobard!
