I am trying to time some programs to see how long they run. I have looked at Time::HiRes but have not been able to install it. I am using RH Linux 7.3 and Perl v5.6.1.The computer is in a lab without Internet access so I don't have an easy way to simply 'install' the package. I've tried manually installing Time::HiRes but that didn't get me too far. An example of the program I've written so far is... foreach (@file) { $starttime=time; ## do something... $stoptime=time; } $duration=$stoptime-$starttime; This works fine but it only gives me timing granularity to a one second level of detail. Worst case I need to be able to measure at least 1/100th of a second. I would like to avoid using a Perl module but haven't found any workable solution yet.
