                     19: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     20: These two routines return elapsed runtime in seconds for the calling process.
                     21: .I Dtime
                     22: returns the elapsed time since the last call to
                     23: .I dtime,
                     24: or the start of execution on the first call.
                     25: .PP
                     26: The argument array returns user time in the first element and system time
                     27: in the second element.
                     28: The function value is the sum of user and system time.
                     29: .PP
                     30: The resolution of all timing is 1/HZ sec. where HZ is currently 60.
