Can I get the result >of a timer from a call, or do I have to put a wrapper on my wrapper? .timer is a shell command specific to the sqlite shell and not part of the SQL language. You would have to put your own wrapper to collect timing data. >On Sun, Mar 9, 2014 at 8:17 PM, Keith Medcalf <kmedc...@dessus.com> >wrote: > >> >> sqlite> create virtual table n using wholenumber; >> sqlite> .timer on >> sqlite> select sum(sqrt(value)) from n where value between 1 and 1000; >> 21097.4558874807 >> Run Time: real 0.001 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 >> sqlite> select sum(sqrt(value)) from n where value between 1 and >1000000; >> 666667166.458841 >> Run Time: real 0.160 user 0.156250 sys 0.000000 >> sqlite> select sum(sqrt(value)) from n where value between 1 and >> 1000000000; >> 21081851083598.4 >> Run Time: real 151.021 user 151.031250 sys 0.000000 >> sqlite> select sum(value) from n where value between 1 and 1000000000; >> 500000000500000000 >> Run Time: real 89.341 user 89.343750 sys 0.000000 >> >> A native sqrt takes about 60 ns per operation. >> >> >-----Original Message----- >> >From: sqlite-users-boun...@sqlite.org [mailto:sqlite-users- >> >boun...@sqlite.org] On Behalf Of big stone >> >Sent: Sunday, 9 March, 2014 03:35 >> >To: sqlite-users@sqlite.org >> >Subject: Re: [sqlite] Suggestion to add "locate" as a broader version >of >> >"instr" >> > >> >Hello Max, >> > >> >Your link is pretty interesting.
