Hi, This is strictly not an FC question, but I would like to time two (mine and the naive) competing algorithms. My question is how do I do it accounting for CPU utilization. Unless I misunderstood the documentation, clock() provides the processor time and so the difference between clock() at the beginning of the call to an algorithm and the end would provide me with the CPU time elapsed. However, if for some reason the processor was running at 75% or whatever, my reported time would be affected, and hence there would not really be a fair comparison. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions as to how I may settle this issue? Many thanks and best wishes! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
