Q.  What a compact way to time the duration of something in javaScript?

A.  Herr's an example:

	// Returns milliseconds since 1970
	function getTime() {
        	return (new Date).getTime();
	}

	function exampleUse() {
		var	start;

		start = getTime();

		// do something

		duration = getTime() - start;
	}
