I get my data from the server and have to update it every x seconds.
I do this using the Handler's postDelayed function.
private long mInterval = 10000;
Runnable mStatusChecker = new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
takeServerResponse(); //with vary duration
}catch (Exception e){
itsRunning = false;
} finally {
if(mHandler!=null) {
mHandler.postDelayed(mStatusChecker, mInterval);
}
}
}
};
Sometimes it may take more than X seconds to get new data.
What can I do in this situation?
If we need increase interval,how to determine when to do so?
You can calculate the duration time of your job and postDelayed your handler based on the duration time.
For example:
startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
//your job
duration = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;
mInterval = mInterval - duration
your handler used to call the server response after 10 sec.But Its all depend own your internet speed to get the data from server that's the reason its take long time
How do I get a method's execution time?
Is there a Timer utility class for things like timing how long a task takes, etc?
Most of the searches on Google return results for timers that schedule threads and tasks, which is not what I want.
There is always the old-fashioned way:
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
methodToTime();
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
long duration = (endTime - startTime); //divide by 1000000 to get milliseconds.
I go with the simple answer. Works for me.
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
doReallyLongThing();
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("That took " + (endTime - startTime) + " milliseconds");
It works quite well. The resolution is obviously only to the millisecond, you can do better with System.nanoTime(). There are some limitations to both (operating system schedule slices, etc.) but this works pretty well.
Average across a couple of runs (the more the better) and you'll get a decent idea.
Come on guys! Nobody mentioned the Guava way to do that (which is arguably awesome):
import com.google.common.base.Stopwatch;
Stopwatch timer = Stopwatch.createStarted();
//method invocation
LOG.info("Method took: " + timer.stop());
The nice thing is that Stopwatch.toString() does a good job of selecting time units for the measurement. I.e. if the value is small, it'll output 38 ns, if it's long, it'll show 5m 3s
Even nicer:
Stopwatch timer = Stopwatch.createUnstarted();
for (...) {
timer.start();
methodToTrackTimeFor();
timer.stop();
methodNotToTrackTimeFor();
}
LOG.info("Method took: " + timer);
Note: Google Guava requires Java 1.6+

Use a profiler (JProfiler, Netbeans Profiler, Visual VM, Eclipse Profiler, etc). You'll get the most accurate results and is the least intrusive. They use the built-in JVM mechanism for profiling which can also give you extra information like stack traces, execution paths, and more comprehensive results if necessary.
When using a fully integrated profiler, it's faily trivial to profile a method. Right click, Profiler -> Add to Root Methods. Then run the profiler just like you were doing a test run or debugger.
System.currentTimeMillis(); IS NOT a good approach for measuring the performance of your algorithms. It measures the total time you experience as a user watching the computer screen. It includes also time consumed by everything else running on your computer in the background. This could make a huge difference in case you have a lot of programs running on your workstation.
Proper approach is using java.lang.management package.
From http://nadeausoftware.com/articles/2008/03/java_tip_how_get_cpu_and_user_time_benchmarking website (archive link):
"User time" is the time spent running your application's own code.
"System time" is the time spent running OS code on behalf of your application (such as for I/O).
getCpuTime() method gives you sum of those:
import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;
import java.lang.management.ThreadMXBean;
public class CPUUtils {
/** Get CPU time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getCpuTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
bean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime( ) : 0L;
}
/** Get user time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getUserTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
bean.getCurrentThreadUserTime( ) : 0L;
}
/** Get system time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getSystemTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
(bean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime( ) - bean.getCurrentThreadUserTime( )) : 0L;
}
}
This probably isn't what you wanted me to say, but this is a good use of AOP. Whip an proxy interceptor around your method, and do the timing in there.
The what, why and how of AOP is rather beyond the scope of this answer, sadly, but that's how I'd likely do it.
Edit: Here's a link to Spring AOP to get you started, if you're keen. This is the most accessible implementation of AOP that Iive come across for java.
Also, given everyone else's very simple suggestions, I should add that AOP is for when you don't want stuff like timing to invade your code. But in many cases, that sort of simple and easy approach is fine.
With Java 8 you can do also something like this with every normal methods:
Object returnValue = TimeIt.printTime(() -> methodeWithReturnValue());
//do stuff with your returnValue
with TimeIt like:
public class TimeIt {
public static <T> T printTime(Callable<T> task) {
T call = null;
try {
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
call = task.call();
System.out.print((System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000d + "s");
} catch (Exception e) {
//...
}
return call;
}
}
With this methode you can make easy time measurement anywhere in your code without breaking it. In this simple example i just print the time. May you add a Switch for TimeIt, e.g. to only print the time in DebugMode or something.
If you are working with Function you can do somthing like this:
Function<Integer, Integer> yourFunction= (n) -> {
return IntStream.range(0, n).reduce(0, (a, b) -> a + b);
};
Integer returnValue = TimeIt.printTime2(yourFunction).apply(10000);
//do stuff with your returnValue
public static <T, R> Function<T, R> printTime2(Function<T, R> task) {
return (t) -> {
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
R apply = task.apply(t);
System.out.print((System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000d
+ "s");
return apply;
};
}
Also We can use StopWatch class of Apache commons for measuring the time.
Sample code
org.apache.commons.lang.time.StopWatch sw = new org.apache.commons.lang.time.StopWatch();
System.out.println("getEventFilterTreeData :: Start Time : " + sw.getTime());
sw.start();
// Method execution code
sw.stop();
System.out.println("getEventFilterTreeData :: End Time : " + sw.getTime());
JEP 230: Microbenchmark Suite
FYI, JEP 230: Microbenchmark Suite is an OpenJDK project to:
Add a basic suite of microbenchmarks to the JDK source code, and make it easy for developers to run existing microbenchmarks and create new ones.
This feature arrived in Java 12.
Java Microbenchmark Harness (JMH)
For earlier versions of Java, take a look at the Java Microbenchmark Harness (JMH) project on which JEP 230 is based.
Just a small twist, if you don't use tooling and want to time methods with low execution time: execute it many times, each time doubling the number of times it is executed until you reach a second, or so. Thus, the time of the Call to System.nanoTime and so forth, nor the accuracy of System.nanoTime does affect the result much.
int runs = 0, runsPerRound = 10;
long begin = System.nanoTime(), end;
do {
for (int i=0; i<runsPerRound; ++i) timedMethod();
end = System.nanoTime();
runs += runsPerRound;
runsPerRound *= 2;
} while (runs < Integer.MAX_VALUE / 2 && 1000000000L > end - begin);
System.out.println("Time for timedMethod() is " +
0.000000001 * (end-begin) / runs + " seconds");
Of course, the caveats about using the wall clock apply: influences of JIT-compilation, multiple threads / processes etc. Thus, you need to first execute the method a lot of times first, such that the JIT compiler does its work, and then repeat this test multiple times and take the lowest execution time.
We are using AspectJ and Java annotations for this purpose. If we need to know to execution time for a method, we simple annotate it. A more advanced version could use an own log level that can enabled and disabled at runtime.
public #interface Trace {
boolean showParameters();
}
#Aspect
public class TraceAspect {
[...]
#Around("tracePointcut() && #annotation(trace) && !within(TraceAspect)")
public Object traceAdvice ( ProceedingJintPoint jP, Trace trace ) {
Object result;
// initilize timer
try {
result = jp.procced();
} finally {
// calculate execution time
}
return result;
}
[...]
}
Really good code.

Spring provides a utility class org.springframework.util.StopWatch, as per JavaDoc:
Simple stop watch, allowing for timing of a number of tasks, exposing
total running time and running time for each named task.
Usage:
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch("Performance Test Result");
stopWatch.start("Method 1");
doSomething1();//method to test
stopWatch.stop();
stopWatch.start("Method 2");
doSomething2();//method to test
stopWatch.stop();
System.out.println(stopWatch.prettyPrint());
Output:
StopWatch 'Performance Test Result': running time (millis) = 12829
-----------------------------------------
ms % Task name
-----------------------------------------
11907 036% Method 1
00922 064% Method 2
With Aspects:
#Around("execution(* my.package..*.*(..))")
public Object logTime(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint) throws Throwable {
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch();
stopWatch.start();
Object retVal = joinPoint.proceed();
stopWatch.stop();
log.info(" execution time: " + stopWatch.getTotalTimeMillis() + " ms");
return retVal;
}
You can use Perf4j. Very cool utility. Usage is simple
String watchTag = "target.SomeMethod";
StopWatch stopWatch = new LoggingStopWatch(watchTag);
Result result = null; // Result is a type of a return value of a method
try {
result = target.SomeMethod();
stopWatch.stop(watchTag + ".success");
} catch (Exception e) {
stopWatch.stop(watchTag + ".fail", "Exception was " + e);
throw e;
}
More information can be found in Developer Guide
Edit: Project seems dead
I have written a method to print the method execution time in a much readable form.
For example, to calculate the factorial of 1 Million, it takes approximately 9 minutes. So the execution time get printed as:
Execution Time: 9 Minutes, 36 Seconds, 237 MicroSeconds, 806193 NanoSeconds
The code is here:
public class series
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
long n = 10_00_000;
printFactorial(n);
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
printExecutionTime(startTime, endTime);
}
public static void printExecutionTime(long startTime, long endTime)
{
long time_ns = endTime - startTime;
long time_ms = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMillis(time_ns);
long time_sec = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toSeconds(time_ns);
long time_min = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMinutes(time_ns);
long time_hour = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toHours(time_ns);
System.out.print("\nExecution Time: ");
if(time_hour > 0)
System.out.print(time_hour + " Hours, ");
if(time_min > 0)
System.out.print(time_min % 60 + " Minutes, ");
if(time_sec > 0)
System.out.print(time_sec % 60 + " Seconds, ");
if(time_ms > 0)
System.out.print(time_ms % 1E+3 + " MicroSeconds, ");
if(time_ns > 0)
System.out.print(time_ns % 1E+6 + " NanoSeconds");
}
}
In Spring framework we have a call called StopWatch (org.springframework.util.StopWatch)
//measuring elapsed time using Spring StopWatch
StopWatch watch = new StopWatch();
watch.start();
for(int i=0; i< 1000; i++){
Object obj = new Object();
}
watch.stop();
System.out.println("Total execution time to create 1000 objects in Java using StopWatch in millis: "
+ watch.getTotalTimeMillis());
new Timer(""){{
// code to time
}}.timeMe();
public class Timer {
private final String timerName;
private long started;
public Timer(String timerName) {
this.timerName = timerName;
this.started = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
public void timeMe() {
System.out.println(
String.format("Execution of '%s' takes %dms.",
timerName,
started-System.currentTimeMillis()));
}
}
Using AOP/AspectJ and #Loggable annotation from jcabi-aspects you can do it easy and compact:
#Loggable(Loggable.DEBUG)
public String getSomeResult() {
// return some value
}
Every call to this method will be sent to SLF4J logging facility with DEBUG logging level. And every log message will include execution time.
You can use Metrics library which provides various measuring instruments. Add dependency:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dropwizard.metrics</groupId>
<artifactId>metrics-core</artifactId>
<version>${metrics.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
And configure it for your environment.
Methods can be annotated with #Timed:
#Timed
public void exampleMethod(){
// some code
}
or piece of code wrapped with Timer:
final Timer timer = metricsRegistry.timer("some_name");
final Timer.Context context = timer.time();
// timed code
context.stop();
Aggregated metrics can exported to console, JMX, CSV or other.
#Timed metrics output example:
com.example.ExampleService.exampleMethod
count = 2
mean rate = 3.11 calls/minute
1-minute rate = 0.96 calls/minute
5-minute rate = 0.20 calls/minute
15-minute rate = 0.07 calls/minute
min = 17.01 milliseconds
max = 1006.68 milliseconds
mean = 511.84 milliseconds
stddev = 699.80 milliseconds
median = 511.84 milliseconds
75% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
95% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
98% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
99% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
99.9% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
I basically do variations of this, but considering how hotspot compilation works, if you want to get accurate results you need to throw out the first few measurements and make sure you are using the method in a real world (read application specific) application.
If the JIT decides to compile it your numbers will vary heavily. so just be aware
There are a couple of ways to do that. I normally fall back to just using something like this:
long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
// ... do something ...
long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
or the same thing with System.nanoTime();
For something more on the benchmarking side of things there seems also to be this one: http://jetm.void.fm/ Never tried it though.
If you want wall-clock time
long start_time = System.currentTimeMillis();
object.method();
long end_time = System.currentTimeMillis();
long execution_time = end_time - start_time;
As "skaffman" said, use AOP OR you can use run time bytecode weaving, just like unit test method coverage tools use to transparently add timing info to methods invoked.
You can look at code used by open source tools tools like Emma (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/emma/emma-2.0.5312-src.zip?modtime=1118607545&big_mirror=0). The other opensource coverage tool is http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cobertura/cobertura-1.9-src.zip?download.
If you eventually manage to do what you set out for, pls. share it back with the community here with your ant task/jars.
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
// code goes here
long finishTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
long elapsedTime = finishTime - startTime; // elapsed time in milliseconds
I modified the code from correct answer to get result in seconds:
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
methodCode ...
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
double duration = (double)(endTime - startTime) / (Math.pow(10, 9));
Log.v(TAG, "MethodName time (s) = " + duration);
Ok, this is a simple class to be used for simple simple timing of your functions. There is an example below it.
public class Stopwatch {
static long startTime;
static long splitTime;
static long endTime;
public Stopwatch() {
start();
}
public void start() {
startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
splitTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
public void split() {
split("");
}
public void split(String tag) {
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Split time for [" + tag + "]: " + (endTime - splitTime) + " ms");
splitTime = endTime;
}
public void end() {
end("");
}
public void end(String tag) {
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Final time for [" + tag + "]: " + (endTime - startTime) + " ms");
}
}
Sample of use:
public static Schedule getSchedule(Activity activity_context) {
String scheduleJson = null;
Schedule schedule = null;
/*->*/ Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch();
InputStream scheduleJsonInputStream = activity_context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.skating_times);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("open raw resource");
scheduleJson = FileToString.convertStreamToString(scheduleJsonInputStream);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("file to string");
schedule = new Gson().fromJson(scheduleJson, Schedule.class);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("parse Json");
/*->*/ stopwatch.end("Method getSchedule");
return schedule;
}
Sample of console output:
Split time for [file to string]: 672 ms
Split time for [parse Json]: 893 ms
Final time for [get Schedule]: 1565 ms
In Java 8 a new class named Instant is introduced. As per doc:
Instant represents the start of a nanosecond on the time line. This
class is useful for generating a time stamp to represent machine time.
The range of an instant requires the storage of a number larger than a
long. To achieve this, the class stores a long representing
epoch-seconds and an int representing nanosecond-of-second, which will
always be between 0 and 999,999,999. The epoch-seconds are measured
from the standard Java epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z where instants
after the epoch have positive values, and earlier instants have
negative values. For both the epoch-second and nanosecond parts, a
larger value is always later on the time-line than a smaller value.
This can be used as:
Instant start = Instant.now();
try {
Thread.sleep(7000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Instant end = Instant.now();
System.out.println(Duration.between(start, end));
It prints PT7.001S.
You can use stopwatch class from spring core project:
Code:
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch()
stopWatch.start(); //start stopwatch
// write your function or line of code.
stopWatch.stop(); //stop stopwatch
stopWatch.getTotalTimeMillis() ; ///get total time
Documentation for Stopwatch:
Simple stop watch, allowing for timing of a number of tasks, exposing total running time and running time for each named task.
Conceals use of System.currentTimeMillis(), improving the readability of application code and reducing the likelihood of calculation errors.
Note that this object is not designed to be thread-safe and does not use synchronization.
This class is normally used to verify performance during proof-of-concepts and in development, rather than as part of production applications.
I want to compare a timestamp coming from db and see if it's 1 hr 59 minutes old or not,I have implemented the following code.Please review it and suggest changes:
private static final long TIME_LIMIT= 7199 * 1000;
private Token getTokenFromDB ()
{
InterfaceRequestResponseDAO.getInstance ().getEntityManager ().createNamedQuery (InterfaceRequestResponse.Queries.GET_TOKEN) //
.setParameter ("token", InterfaceRequestResponse.COL_RESPONSEEND)//
.setParameter ("interfaceRequestResponseID", this.getInterfaceRequestResponseID ())//
.executeUpdate ();
// authenticationToken.getResponseEnd ();
long responseEnd = System.currentTimeMillis ();
if (responseEnd < TIME_LIMIT)
return authenticationToken;
else
return NOT_VALID;
I suggest you to use JodaDate..
I implemented the same thing in a project. What I did was I saved the expire time instead of the timestamp created. This makes it more easy to handle.
Everytime I refresh the token, I update the expireTime by adding the offset
DateTime expireTime = new DateTime(new Date());
expireTime = expireTime.addHours(2);//because token expires in 2 hours
And then I store this time.
When I'm requesting, I used to check if the current time < expire time.
DateTime expireTime = getTimeFromDB();
DateTime now = new DateTime(new Date());
if( now.isBefore(expireTime))
{
//valid token.
}
else
{
// refresh your token and update the time.
}
I am trying to make a countdown timer. I have came up with this code and initially I thought it worked. However when I run the app two things happen which I don't know how to fix...
It is out of sync, although it is the system Time and Date it said there was only 60 days left not 61 when I know it is 61!!
If I close the app and go back it resets the counters...
Any help with this would be appreciated, its not for anything particular just a personal project.

My code is a combination of some things that I learnt, in java and android, if you think of a better way of doing it all together then please let me know :)
Thanks
Android is not a Real Time OS so you can count that your Timer will run exactly every 1000 ms.
The most practical approach is, for each invocation, get the current date, get the target date, and recalculate the days/hours/minutes/seconds remaining (just as you did as the beginning of your app).
That would also solve your problem when closing/opening your app.
Here is an example how to sync the countDownTimer.
(as "onTick()" is not accurate according to Android)
The trick is to use only "onFinish()" and start a new timer using an Interface.
make a EXTENDED CLASS of countDownTimer:
public class oneShotTimer extends CountDownTimer {
TickListener invokeOnFinish; // Interface
public oneShotTimer (Context parent, int tickTime, TickListener contextPointer) {
super(tickTime, tickTime); // DEBUG: (/60)
....
}
At the OnFinish():
public void onFinish() {
invokeOnFinish.restartTimer();
}
public void onTick() {
Log.e("Timer", "Not suppose to happen");
}
Define an interface:
public interface TickListener {
public void restartTimer();
}
Now at the parent Object do the following:
1) Before starting the timer, get the time in MillinSecond -> "startTime";
2) Create the method for "TickListener::restartTimer" (I wrote psadu code)
#Override
public void restartTimer() {
// check if timer is done (make your own variable to monitor that)
// get the currentTime in MilliSecond
// calc TickTime , if we know that 30 tick are already counted
// there for ((30+1) x wantedTickTime) give us the target time for the next tick.
// TickTime = (31 x wantedTickTime) - (currentTime - startTime)
// for example, we want 1sec ticks, after 30 ticks it finished at 30.2 sec
// => (31 x 1) - (40.2 - 10) = 0.8 is the time we need to re start timer.
// re-run a new Timer with the new TickTime
}
Now let see how Java garbage collection will handle it.
How do I get a method's execution time?
Is there a Timer utility class for things like timing how long a task takes, etc?
Most of the searches on Google return results for timers that schedule threads and tasks, which is not what I want.
There is always the old-fashioned way:
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
methodToTime();
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
long duration = (endTime - startTime); //divide by 1000000 to get milliseconds.
I go with the simple answer. Works for me.
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
doReallyLongThing();
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("That took " + (endTime - startTime) + " milliseconds");
It works quite well. The resolution is obviously only to the millisecond, you can do better with System.nanoTime(). There are some limitations to both (operating system schedule slices, etc.) but this works pretty well.
Average across a couple of runs (the more the better) and you'll get a decent idea.
Come on guys! Nobody mentioned the Guava way to do that (which is arguably awesome):
import com.google.common.base.Stopwatch;
Stopwatch timer = Stopwatch.createStarted();
//method invocation
LOG.info("Method took: " + timer.stop());
The nice thing is that Stopwatch.toString() does a good job of selecting time units for the measurement. I.e. if the value is small, it'll output 38 ns, if it's long, it'll show 5m 3s
Even nicer:
Stopwatch timer = Stopwatch.createUnstarted();
for (...) {
timer.start();
methodToTrackTimeFor();
timer.stop();
methodNotToTrackTimeFor();
}
LOG.info("Method took: " + timer);
Note: Google Guava requires Java 1.6+

Use a profiler (JProfiler, Netbeans Profiler, Visual VM, Eclipse Profiler, etc). You'll get the most accurate results and is the least intrusive. They use the built-in JVM mechanism for profiling which can also give you extra information like stack traces, execution paths, and more comprehensive results if necessary.
When using a fully integrated profiler, it's faily trivial to profile a method. Right click, Profiler -> Add to Root Methods. Then run the profiler just like you were doing a test run or debugger.
System.currentTimeMillis(); IS NOT a good approach for measuring the performance of your algorithms. It measures the total time you experience as a user watching the computer screen. It includes also time consumed by everything else running on your computer in the background. This could make a huge difference in case you have a lot of programs running on your workstation.
Proper approach is using java.lang.management package.
From http://nadeausoftware.com/articles/2008/03/java_tip_how_get_cpu_and_user_time_benchmarking website (archive link):
"User time" is the time spent running your application's own code.
"System time" is the time spent running OS code on behalf of your application (such as for I/O).
getCpuTime() method gives you sum of those:
import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;
import java.lang.management.ThreadMXBean;
public class CPUUtils {
/** Get CPU time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getCpuTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
bean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime( ) : 0L;
}
/** Get user time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getUserTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
bean.getCurrentThreadUserTime( ) : 0L;
}
/** Get system time in nanoseconds. */
public static long getSystemTime( ) {
ThreadMXBean bean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean( );
return bean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported( ) ?
(bean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime( ) - bean.getCurrentThreadUserTime( )) : 0L;
}
}
This probably isn't what you wanted me to say, but this is a good use of AOP. Whip an proxy interceptor around your method, and do the timing in there.
The what, why and how of AOP is rather beyond the scope of this answer, sadly, but that's how I'd likely do it.
Edit: Here's a link to Spring AOP to get you started, if you're keen. This is the most accessible implementation of AOP that Iive come across for java.
Also, given everyone else's very simple suggestions, I should add that AOP is for when you don't want stuff like timing to invade your code. But in many cases, that sort of simple and easy approach is fine.
With Java 8 you can do also something like this with every normal methods:
Object returnValue = TimeIt.printTime(() -> methodeWithReturnValue());
//do stuff with your returnValue
with TimeIt like:
public class TimeIt {
public static <T> T printTime(Callable<T> task) {
T call = null;
try {
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
call = task.call();
System.out.print((System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000d + "s");
} catch (Exception e) {
//...
}
return call;
}
}
With this methode you can make easy time measurement anywhere in your code without breaking it. In this simple example i just print the time. May you add a Switch for TimeIt, e.g. to only print the time in DebugMode or something.
If you are working with Function you can do somthing like this:
Function<Integer, Integer> yourFunction= (n) -> {
return IntStream.range(0, n).reduce(0, (a, b) -> a + b);
};
Integer returnValue = TimeIt.printTime2(yourFunction).apply(10000);
//do stuff with your returnValue
public static <T, R> Function<T, R> printTime2(Function<T, R> task) {
return (t) -> {
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
R apply = task.apply(t);
System.out.print((System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000d
+ "s");
return apply;
};
}
Also We can use StopWatch class of Apache commons for measuring the time.
Sample code
org.apache.commons.lang.time.StopWatch sw = new org.apache.commons.lang.time.StopWatch();
System.out.println("getEventFilterTreeData :: Start Time : " + sw.getTime());
sw.start();
// Method execution code
sw.stop();
System.out.println("getEventFilterTreeData :: End Time : " + sw.getTime());
JEP 230: Microbenchmark Suite
FYI, JEP 230: Microbenchmark Suite is an OpenJDK project to:
Add a basic suite of microbenchmarks to the JDK source code, and make it easy for developers to run existing microbenchmarks and create new ones.
This feature arrived in Java 12.
Java Microbenchmark Harness (JMH)
For earlier versions of Java, take a look at the Java Microbenchmark Harness (JMH) project on which JEP 230 is based.
We are using AspectJ and Java annotations for this purpose. If we need to know to execution time for a method, we simple annotate it. A more advanced version could use an own log level that can enabled and disabled at runtime.
public #interface Trace {
boolean showParameters();
}
#Aspect
public class TraceAspect {
[...]
#Around("tracePointcut() && #annotation(trace) && !within(TraceAspect)")
public Object traceAdvice ( ProceedingJintPoint jP, Trace trace ) {
Object result;
// initilize timer
try {
result = jp.procced();
} finally {
// calculate execution time
}
return result;
}
[...]
}
Just a small twist, if you don't use tooling and want to time methods with low execution time: execute it many times, each time doubling the number of times it is executed until you reach a second, or so. Thus, the time of the Call to System.nanoTime and so forth, nor the accuracy of System.nanoTime does affect the result much.
int runs = 0, runsPerRound = 10;
long begin = System.nanoTime(), end;
do {
for (int i=0; i<runsPerRound; ++i) timedMethod();
end = System.nanoTime();
runs += runsPerRound;
runsPerRound *= 2;
} while (runs < Integer.MAX_VALUE / 2 && 1000000000L > end - begin);
System.out.println("Time for timedMethod() is " +
0.000000001 * (end-begin) / runs + " seconds");
Of course, the caveats about using the wall clock apply: influences of JIT-compilation, multiple threads / processes etc. Thus, you need to first execute the method a lot of times first, such that the JIT compiler does its work, and then repeat this test multiple times and take the lowest execution time.
Really good code.

Spring provides a utility class org.springframework.util.StopWatch, as per JavaDoc:
Simple stop watch, allowing for timing of a number of tasks, exposing
total running time and running time for each named task.
Usage:
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch("Performance Test Result");
stopWatch.start("Method 1");
doSomething1();//method to test
stopWatch.stop();
stopWatch.start("Method 2");
doSomething2();//method to test
stopWatch.stop();
System.out.println(stopWatch.prettyPrint());
Output:
StopWatch 'Performance Test Result': running time (millis) = 12829
-----------------------------------------
ms % Task name
-----------------------------------------
11907 036% Method 1
00922 064% Method 2
With Aspects:
#Around("execution(* my.package..*.*(..))")
public Object logTime(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint) throws Throwable {
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch();
stopWatch.start();
Object retVal = joinPoint.proceed();
stopWatch.stop();
log.info(" execution time: " + stopWatch.getTotalTimeMillis() + " ms");
return retVal;
}
You can use Perf4j. Very cool utility. Usage is simple
String watchTag = "target.SomeMethod";
StopWatch stopWatch = new LoggingStopWatch(watchTag);
Result result = null; // Result is a type of a return value of a method
try {
result = target.SomeMethod();
stopWatch.stop(watchTag + ".success");
} catch (Exception e) {
stopWatch.stop(watchTag + ".fail", "Exception was " + e);
throw e;
}
More information can be found in Developer Guide
Edit: Project seems dead
I have written a method to print the method execution time in a much readable form.
For example, to calculate the factorial of 1 Million, it takes approximately 9 minutes. So the execution time get printed as:
Execution Time: 9 Minutes, 36 Seconds, 237 MicroSeconds, 806193 NanoSeconds
The code is here:
public class series
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
long n = 10_00_000;
printFactorial(n);
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
printExecutionTime(startTime, endTime);
}
public static void printExecutionTime(long startTime, long endTime)
{
long time_ns = endTime - startTime;
long time_ms = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMillis(time_ns);
long time_sec = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toSeconds(time_ns);
long time_min = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMinutes(time_ns);
long time_hour = TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toHours(time_ns);
System.out.print("\nExecution Time: ");
if(time_hour > 0)
System.out.print(time_hour + " Hours, ");
if(time_min > 0)
System.out.print(time_min % 60 + " Minutes, ");
if(time_sec > 0)
System.out.print(time_sec % 60 + " Seconds, ");
if(time_ms > 0)
System.out.print(time_ms % 1E+3 + " MicroSeconds, ");
if(time_ns > 0)
System.out.print(time_ns % 1E+6 + " NanoSeconds");
}
}
In Spring framework we have a call called StopWatch (org.springframework.util.StopWatch)
//measuring elapsed time using Spring StopWatch
StopWatch watch = new StopWatch();
watch.start();
for(int i=0; i< 1000; i++){
Object obj = new Object();
}
watch.stop();
System.out.println("Total execution time to create 1000 objects in Java using StopWatch in millis: "
+ watch.getTotalTimeMillis());
new Timer(""){{
// code to time
}}.timeMe();
public class Timer {
private final String timerName;
private long started;
public Timer(String timerName) {
this.timerName = timerName;
this.started = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
public void timeMe() {
System.out.println(
String.format("Execution of '%s' takes %dms.",
timerName,
started-System.currentTimeMillis()));
}
}
Using AOP/AspectJ and #Loggable annotation from jcabi-aspects you can do it easy and compact:
#Loggable(Loggable.DEBUG)
public String getSomeResult() {
// return some value
}
Every call to this method will be sent to SLF4J logging facility with DEBUG logging level. And every log message will include execution time.
You can use Metrics library which provides various measuring instruments. Add dependency:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.dropwizard.metrics</groupId>
<artifactId>metrics-core</artifactId>
<version>${metrics.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
And configure it for your environment.
Methods can be annotated with #Timed:
#Timed
public void exampleMethod(){
// some code
}
or piece of code wrapped with Timer:
final Timer timer = metricsRegistry.timer("some_name");
final Timer.Context context = timer.time();
// timed code
context.stop();
Aggregated metrics can exported to console, JMX, CSV or other.
#Timed metrics output example:
com.example.ExampleService.exampleMethod
count = 2
mean rate = 3.11 calls/minute
1-minute rate = 0.96 calls/minute
5-minute rate = 0.20 calls/minute
15-minute rate = 0.07 calls/minute
min = 17.01 milliseconds
max = 1006.68 milliseconds
mean = 511.84 milliseconds
stddev = 699.80 milliseconds
median = 511.84 milliseconds
75% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
95% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
98% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
99% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
99.9% <= 1006.68 milliseconds
I basically do variations of this, but considering how hotspot compilation works, if you want to get accurate results you need to throw out the first few measurements and make sure you are using the method in a real world (read application specific) application.
If the JIT decides to compile it your numbers will vary heavily. so just be aware
There are a couple of ways to do that. I normally fall back to just using something like this:
long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
// ... do something ...
long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
or the same thing with System.nanoTime();
For something more on the benchmarking side of things there seems also to be this one: http://jetm.void.fm/ Never tried it though.
If you want wall-clock time
long start_time = System.currentTimeMillis();
object.method();
long end_time = System.currentTimeMillis();
long execution_time = end_time - start_time;
As "skaffman" said, use AOP OR you can use run time bytecode weaving, just like unit test method coverage tools use to transparently add timing info to methods invoked.
You can look at code used by open source tools tools like Emma (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/emma/emma-2.0.5312-src.zip?modtime=1118607545&big_mirror=0). The other opensource coverage tool is http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cobertura/cobertura-1.9-src.zip?download.
If you eventually manage to do what you set out for, pls. share it back with the community here with your ant task/jars.
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
// code goes here
long finishTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
long elapsedTime = finishTime - startTime; // elapsed time in milliseconds
I modified the code from correct answer to get result in seconds:
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
methodCode ...
long endTime = System.nanoTime();
double duration = (double)(endTime - startTime) / (Math.pow(10, 9));
Log.v(TAG, "MethodName time (s) = " + duration);
Ok, this is a simple class to be used for simple simple timing of your functions. There is an example below it.
public class Stopwatch {
static long startTime;
static long splitTime;
static long endTime;
public Stopwatch() {
start();
}
public void start() {
startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
splitTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
}
public void split() {
split("");
}
public void split(String tag) {
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Split time for [" + tag + "]: " + (endTime - splitTime) + " ms");
splitTime = endTime;
}
public void end() {
end("");
}
public void end(String tag) {
endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Final time for [" + tag + "]: " + (endTime - startTime) + " ms");
}
}
Sample of use:
public static Schedule getSchedule(Activity activity_context) {
String scheduleJson = null;
Schedule schedule = null;
/*->*/ Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch();
InputStream scheduleJsonInputStream = activity_context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.skating_times);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("open raw resource");
scheduleJson = FileToString.convertStreamToString(scheduleJsonInputStream);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("file to string");
schedule = new Gson().fromJson(scheduleJson, Schedule.class);
/*->*/ stopwatch.split("parse Json");
/*->*/ stopwatch.end("Method getSchedule");
return schedule;
}
Sample of console output:
Split time for [file to string]: 672 ms
Split time for [parse Json]: 893 ms
Final time for [get Schedule]: 1565 ms
In Java 8 a new class named Instant is introduced. As per doc:
Instant represents the start of a nanosecond on the time line. This
class is useful for generating a time stamp to represent machine time.
The range of an instant requires the storage of a number larger than a
long. To achieve this, the class stores a long representing
epoch-seconds and an int representing nanosecond-of-second, which will
always be between 0 and 999,999,999. The epoch-seconds are measured
from the standard Java epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z where instants
after the epoch have positive values, and earlier instants have
negative values. For both the epoch-second and nanosecond parts, a
larger value is always later on the time-line than a smaller value.
This can be used as:
Instant start = Instant.now();
try {
Thread.sleep(7000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();

You can use stopwatch class from spring core project:
Code:
StopWatch stopWatch = new StopWatch()
stopWatch.start(); //start stopwatch
// write your function or line of code.
stopWatch.stop(); //stop stopwatch
stopWatch.getTotalTimeMillis() ; ///get total time
Documentation for Stopwatch:
Simple stop watch, allowing for timing of a number of tasks, exposing total running time and running time for each named task.
Conceals use of System.currentTimeMillis(), improving the readability of application code and reducing the likelihood of calculation errors.
Note that this object is not designed to be thread-safe and does not use synchronization.
This class is normally used to verify performance during proof-of-concepts and in development, rather than as part of production applications.
