UTILITY PROGRAM DESCRIPTION MILESTONE XI SUBROUTINE TIMER (SRTIMER)

Abstract

SRTIMER (Subroutine Timer) is a generalized routine for timing COP system programs. On the first entry to SRTIMER the speed of the computer is checked by doing a loop of known length. The constants used in the timing portion are adjusted to compensate for the difference of the individual computer from the 1604 specifications. A check is made to determine whether SRTIMER was loaded in an even or an odd location.
