How do I measure execution time of a command on the Windows command line?

Question

Is there a built-in way to measure execution time of a command on the Windows command line?

Answer 1

In case anyone else has come here looking for an answer to this question, there's a Windows API function called GetProcessTimes(). It doesn't look like too much work to write a little C program that would start the command, make this call, and return the process times.
