How to display page processing time ?

[adrianmak]

My client want that information on new pw's website.

Something like "Processed in 0.08814 second(s), 3 queries, 1 file." on my page footer

[Jan Romero]

$timerkey = Debug::timer();

//do lots of things

echo "Lots of things took " . Debug::timer($timerkey) . " seconds to do.";

My pw's website is configured to us delay output method

like

$config->prependTemplateFile = '_init.php';

$config->appendTemplateFile = '_main.php';

Should I put   $timerkey = Debug::timer(); at the very beginning of _main.php and

put echo xxxxxxxx . Debug::timer($timerkey) at the bottom and before </body> tag of _main.php ?

It depends on what you want to measure. If you want to start measuring the time when the prepend file is parsed, thats the right solution.

If you want measure the time from the beginning of execution, you also can start in the _init.php and end in the _main.php. As I said, it completly depends on what you want do.

Is it for developing / internal use cases?

Recently I found a module by user Adrian, called Tracy-Debugger:

It shows you the processing time and *a lot* of other infos in a nice way, including PHP error reporting.

If you don't know it, here's the thread:
