[rhn-users] Query of #time# command on 64-bit RHEL

[Ramprasad Ramprasad]

Hi All :),

I wanna know whether the #time# command is giving the
correct output on 64-bit RedHat or not !!!.
Like, as u all know the time command has 3 fields :
real, user, sys.
I am getting correct output for real field, but
incorrect for user and sys fields on 64-bit RedHat and
all three fields are correct on 32-bit RedHat.
I even traced the #time# command execution sequence by
using #strace# command on both 32-bit and 64-bit
RedHat.

On 32-bit system #time# is using the library :
/lib/tls/libc.so.6

On 64-bit system #time# is using the libraray :
/lib64/tls/libc.so.6

I am not sure whether the #time# command is updated to
64-bit platform ...
Is there anyone, who know whether the 64-bit RedHat
has updated libraries for 64-bit platform ???
Is there any other way to get the real, user and sys
timings for an
application ???.
Can anyone guide me in this issue... ???



Happy Free Open Source ;),

Regards,
Ramprasad B.
