我通常使用以下方法:

#include <chrono>
#include <type_traits>

using perf_clock = std::conditional<
    std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::is_steady,
    std::chrono::high_resolution_clock,
    std::chrono::steady_clock
>::type;

using floating_seconds = std::chrono::duration<double>;

template<class F, class... Args>
floating_seconds run_test(Func&& func, Args&&... args)
{
   const auto t0 = perf_clock::now();
   std::forward<Func>(func)(std::forward<Args>(args)...);
   return floating_seconds(perf_clock::now() - t0);
} 

这与@nikos-athanasiou建议的相同，除了我避免使用非稳定时钟，并使用浮动秒数作为持续时间。

仅限Windows:(Linux标签是在我发布这个答案后添加的)

您可以使用GetTickCount()来获取自系统启动以来所经过的毫秒数。

long int before = GetTickCount();

// Perform time-consuming operation

long int after = GetTickCount();

time(NULL)返回从1970年01月01日00:00 (Epoch)开始经过的秒数。所以这两个值之间的差就是处理所花费的秒数。

int t0 = time(NULL);
doSomthing();
doSomthingLong();
int t1 = time(NULL);

printf ("time = %d secs\n", t1 - t0);

使用getttimeofday()可以得到更好的结果，它返回以秒为单位的当前时间，就像time()一样，也以微秒为单位。

这两个值相同的原因是因为您的长过程不需要那么长时间—不到一秒。你可以试着添加一个长循环(for (int i = 0;I < 100000000;i++);)在函数的末尾确保这是问题所在，然后我们可以从那里…

如果上面的情况是正确的，你将需要找到一个不同的系统函数(我知道你在linux上工作，所以我不能帮助你知道函数名称)来更准确地测量时间。我相信在linux中有一个类似于GetTickCount()的函数，你只需要找到它。

它们是一样的，因为doSomething函数发生得比计时器的粒度快。试一试:

printf ("**MyProgram::before time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

for(i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
    doSomthing();
    doSomthingLong();
}

printf ("**MyProgram::after time= %ld\n", time(NULL));
