I am trying to compare two tools execution time, which I have installed in my debian linux server. Now, I have to give two command line commands to execute those two tools.
For example say,
cat file1 file2 file3 > file4
Now, I am using command time to find execution time of the command:
time cat file1 file2 file3 > file4
And here is the output:
10906.60user 63.66system 3:50:09elapsed 79%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 20190800maxresident)k
39411208inputs+7475408outputs (434703major+7703726minor)pagefaults 0swaps
Can anybody help me:
is 3:50:09elapsed
means process takes 3 hours 50 minutes 9 seconds in WALL-CLOCK-TIME
or not ?
