  25 /* Timing variables are used to measure elapsed time in various
  26    portions of the compiler.  Each measures elapsed user, system, and
  27    wall-clock time, as appropriate to and supported by the host
  28    system.
  29
  30    Timing variables are defined using the DEFTIMEVAR macro in
  31    timevar.def.  Each has an enumeral identifier, used when referring
  32    to the timing variable in code, and a character string name.
  33
  34    Timing variables can be used in two ways:
  35
  36      - On the timing stack, using timevar_push and timevar_pop.
  37        Timing variables may be pushed onto the stack; elapsed time is
  38        attributed to the topmost timing variable on the stack.  When
  39        another variable is pushed on, the previous topmost variable is
  40        `paused' until the pushed variable is popped back off.
  41
  42      - As a standalone timer, using timevar_start and timevar_stop.
  43        All time elapsed between the two calls is attributed to the
  44        variable.

  49    absolute time or a time difference; in the former case, the time
  50    base is undefined, except that the difference between two times
  51    produces a valid time difference.  */
