Class StopWatch

java.lang.Object
org.elasticsearch.common.StopWatch

public class StopWatch extends Object
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.nanoTime(), 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.

  • Constructor Details

    • StopWatch

      public StopWatch()
      Construct a new stop watch. Does not start any task.
    • StopWatch

      public StopWatch(String id)
      Construct a new stop watch with the given id. Does not start any task.
      Parameters:
      id - identifier for this stop watch. Handy when we have output from multiple stop watches and need to distinguish between them.
  • Method Details

    • start

      public StopWatch start() throws IllegalStateException
      Start an unnamed task. The results are undefined if stop() or timing methods are called without invoking this method.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException
      See Also:
    • start

      public StopWatch start(String taskName) throws IllegalStateException
      Start a named task. The results are undefined if stop() or timing methods are called without invoking this method.
      Parameters:
      taskName - the name of the task to start
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException
      See Also:
    • stop

      public StopWatch stop() throws IllegalStateException
      Stop the current task. The results are undefined if timing methods are called without invoking at least one pair start() / #stop() methods.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException
      See Also:
    • timing

      public Releasable timing(String taskName)
    • isRunning

      public boolean isRunning()
      Return whether the stop watch is currently running.
    • lastTaskTime

      public TimeValue lastTaskTime() throws IllegalStateException
      Return the time taken by the last task.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException
    • totalTime

      public TimeValue totalTime()
      Return the total time for all tasks.
    • taskInfo

      public StopWatch.TaskInfo[] taskInfo()
      Return an array of the data for tasks performed.
    • shortSummary

      public String shortSummary()
      Return a short description of the total running time.
    • prettyPrint

      public String prettyPrint()
      Return a string with a table describing all tasks performed. For custom reporting, call getTaskInfo() and use the task info directly.
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Return an informative string describing all tasks performed For custom reporting, call getTaskInfo() and use the task info directly.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
