Stopwatch

  

  1. Stopwatch control. Use the spacebar to start and stop the stopwatch, the 0 key to start or restart the stopwatch from 0, key 2 to restart the stopwatch from the displayed time, key 3 to stop the times.
  2. Ultrak 310 - Event Timer Sport Stopwatch. Ultrak +3 options. Sold and shipped by Forza Sports. A Target Plus™ partner.
  3. The question is also about what does the Stopwatch do inside Start and Stop calls and how this affects the application. VS2013 Performance Analyzer shows that the Stopwatch.Stop wastes about 0.92% (app does 80000 sql queries, 1thread, sw.Start / sw.Stop before each) – mistika Jun 16 '17 at 14:57.

Examples

The following example uses the Stopwatch class to measure the performance of four different implementations for parsing an integer from a string. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the Stopwatch class.

Remarks

This property represents elapsed time rounded down to the nearest whole millisecond value. For higher precision measurements, use the Elapsed or ElapsedTicks properties.

You can query the properties Elapsed, ElapsedMilliseconds, and ElapsedTicks while the Stopwatch instance is running or stopped. The elapsed time properties steadily increase while the Stopwatch is running; they remain constant when the instance is stopped.

By default, the elapsed time value of a Stopwatch instance equals the total of all measured time intervals. Each call to Start begins counting at the cumulative elapsed time; each call to Stop ends the current interval measurement and freezes the cumulative elapsed time value. Use the Reset method to clear the cumulative elapsed time in an existing Stopwatch instance.
