Program Timing -- CpuCheck module

• Include the CpuCheck module in your program. Here is an example from $BFDIST/releases/7.12.5/BbsimModule/AppUserBuild.cc.

  #include "RecoUtils/CpuCheck.hh"
  add (new CpuCheck( "CpuCheck", "Check if there is remaining CPU time."));
  

• Make sure the module is in your tcl path, and is active. This is what you need if your program uses AllPath.

  path append AllPath CpuCheck
  mod enable CpuCheck
  

• Set the print frequency, e.g.

  mod talk CpuCheck
  CpuCheck> printPeriod set 1
  CpuCheck> exit
  

• Run the program. Looks for lines like the following:

  CpuCheck: Starting job with remaining CPU = 21868.7 (secs)
  CpuCheck: Job will stop when remaining CPU = 60 (secs)
  CpuCheck:Ending job with remaining CPU = 14698.97 (secs)
  

  There should also be one line per event of the form

  CpuCheck: CPU remaining = 1234.5 (secs)
  

  They are sent to ErrLogger's trace output stream. If you know how to get at it, please update the instructions here.
