Time Stamping to the second

Steve,

This will work if your benchmark QUIZ program does not run too quickly:

1. Run a QUIZ that just outputs the time.

2. Run your benchmark QUIZ.

3. Run a QUIZ that just outputs the time.

4. Run a QUIZ that just outputs the time.

5  From 3 and 4, you can tell how long it takes to load and run the simple
QUIZ.  

6. From 1 and 3, you can tell how long it takes to run the benchmark, plus
the overhead of running the simple QUIZ (twice).

7. Take 6 minus (2 times 5).

Hey Y'all,

I have the need to timestamp the begining and ending of a QUIZ program for
performance benchmarking between two HP3000s. The systime / sysdate
commands do not provide minutes, much less seconds.

Any ideas... I am not opposed to using commands within MPEX before and
after the program within a job stream.

Environment:  HP3000 987sx   MPE  (MPEX is installed)..  Powerhouse 8.19 D7

Thanks for any ideas.... then you can just go home... tell your boss I said
it was OK....

....Steve Wright
