Implement mechanism for measuring time

Opened this issue · 0 comments

This will be useful for benchmarking various bits of code. The unit used for the measurement must be objective/consistent and it should also be sufficiently small. Using seconds or great units would require running snippets of code for a very long time to get any sort of accurate results.

This issue probably depends on #11.
