Look at the JavaDocs for currentTimeMillis() <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/System.html#method_summary> Note that this is of little practical use. A lot of factors go into how long a method takes to run. These including the VM (how aggressively it optimizes bytecodes) how long the test is run (improves with time) and how much time the underlying OS devotes to the Java threads.
