timing question?

[tannahill1@llnl_gov]

Is there a way for me to determine how much time was used in CAM initialization (i.e., everything before time stepping starts) from the ccsm_timing file?

Also, there is a timing number that goes to stdout at the end of a run; is there a similar number in the ccsm_timing file? Should they match?

Thanks,
John

The DRIVER_INIT event should be a good estimate of initialization time, and the DRIVER_RUN_LOOP event should be a good estimate of run time with initialization removed.

I generally find the DRIVER_RUN_LOOP time to be pretty close to the time reported by the 'Time Step Loop run time(sec)' line in the log output. They won't match because they're coming from different sets of timing calls.
