Problem Statement

Write a program which uses a timer (with the least granularity available on your system) to time how long a function takes to execute. Whenever possible, use methods which measure only the processing time used by the current process; instead of the difference in system time between start and finish, which could include time used by other processes on the computer. This task is intended as a subtask for Measure relative performance of sorting algorithms implementations.

Let's start with the solution:

def count
	for drop endfor
enddef

1000000 count
msec dup var t0 print " seconds" print nl

10000000 count
msec t0 - print " seconds" print
