CITS3402 High Performance Computing


Timing of C programs

We can use the gettimeofday(...) call as illustrated in this code for measuring wall time.

Timing of Fortran programs. You can try this: call system_clock(count_rate=clock_rate) !Find the time rate
call system_clock(count=clock_start) !Start Timer
call do_something_subroutine !This is what gets timed
call system_clock(count=clock_stop) ! Stop Timer
e_time = real(clock_stop-clock_start)/real(clock_rate)
