Re^2: Timers for commands

Contrary to the docs, times doesn't reflect the cpu used by child processes under win32:

print times; 
system q[perl -e"$x = log( atan2(4,1)**($_**3)) for 1 .. 1e6"]; 
print times;;

0.062 0.062 0 0
0.062 0.062 0 0

It could be made to, but it doesn't now.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
