21 /* Timing variables are used to measure elapsed time in various
22 portions of the compiler. Each measures elapsed user, system, and
23 wall-clock time, as appropriate to and supported by the host
24 system.
25
26 Timing variables are defined using the DEFTIMEVAR macro in
27 timevar.def. Each has an enumeral identifier, used when referring
28 to the timing variable in code, and a character string name.
29
30 Timing variables can be used in two ways:
31
32 - On the timing stack, using timevar_push and timevar_pop.
33 Timing variables may be pushed onto the stack; elapsed time is
34 attributed to the topmost timing variable on the stack. When
35 another variable is pushed on, the previous topmost variable is
36 `paused' until the pushed variable is popped back off.
37
38 - As a standalone timer, using timevar_start and timevar_stop.
39 All time elapsed between the two calls is attributed to the
40 variable.

43 /* This structure stores the various varieties of time that can be
44 measured. Times are stored in seconds. The time may be an
45 absolute time or a time difference; in the former case, the time
46 base is undefined, except that the difference between two times
47 produces a valid time difference. */
