Windows time command equivalent

  • 772

There is a command in Linux that outputs system utilization called time. Is there a Windows equivalent? Or how else can I manually use the task manager commands in a batch file?

central-processing-unit windows linux time utilization

  1. If your Operating System has powershell (older operating systems might need a download), you can simply use Measure-Command cmdlet.

  2. The Windows Server 2003 Resource kit includes a timeit utility. The resource kit works fine on XP as well, and I've used the individual tools on newer Windows operating systems as well.

  3. I found a tool which -- while not a direct port -- appears to give you the information you desire.

    C:\> timemem "find \"e\" myfile.txt"

---------- MYFILE.TXT

>TWO IUB ambiguity codes
>THREE Homo sapiens frequency

    timemem.exe is available from Andy Fingerhut's page of code and the timemem source is hosted on github as part of the clojure-benchmark repo.

    Much detail is available in readme-timemem.txt, form where I copied the above example.
