If anyone's interested, a few improvements to ptime(1) went back into build 104.
The default resolution for ptime(1) is now nanoseconds, not milliseconds. ptime(1) now gives you microstate accounting with the -m flag. ptime(1) can give you a snapshot of stats for a running process with the -p flag. Here's an example of some useful output: # ptime -mp 3878 real 2:15:18.628852000 user 6:35.716786500 sys 25.661374000 trap 11:17.744179300 tflt 2.942089500 dflt 0.783120500 kflt 0.000000000 lock 4:12:29.949160100 slp 4:30:03.207612800 lat 10.936162100 stop 0.000081200 # (For the curious, the excessive trap time was a result of trapping into the kernel to handle misaligned memory accesses.)
