As a side note, while the elapsed time provided by "time" is probably
reliable, the user and system time are obtained by sampling under
asumptions which are sometimes not met. Arbitrarily large deviations
from the reality are possible. The CPU time computed from the LTTng
trace data is exact, not statistical.
