GetTickCount
DescriptionReturns
the current value of an internal millisecond timer.
ReturnsA string
representation of the system time, in milliseconds.
Function syntaxGetTickCount()
UsageThis function
is useful for timing CFML code segments or other page processing elements.
The value of the counter has no meaning. To generate useful timing values,
take the difference between the results of two GetTickCount calls.
Example<!--- Setup timing test --->
<cfset iterationCount = 1000>
<!--- Time an empty loop with this many iterations --->
<cfset tickBegin = GetTickCount()>
<cfloop Index = i From = 1 To = #iterationCount#></cfloop>
<cfset tickEnd = GetTickCount()>
<cfset loopTime = tickEnd - tickBegin>
<!--- Report --->
<cfoutput>Loop time (#iterationCount# iterations) was: #loopTime#
milliseconds</cfoutput>
