Timed Task

Want to report on the time taken to perform a task? Wrap Garp_Util_TimedTask around it!

$timedTask = new Garp_Util_TimedTask(array($this, 'importEverything'), $arguments);
$functionResponse = $timedTask->perform();

echo 'Thanks for waiting ' . $timedTask->getTime() . ' seconds.';

Particularly useful for reporting back on the CLI.

You can format the time like this:

echo 'It took ' . $timedTask->getTime(Garp_Util_TimedTask::FORMAT_MINUTES) . ' minutes.';
echo 'It took ' . $timedTask->getTime(Garp_Util_TimedTask::FORMAT_HOURS) . ' hours.';

Note that TimedTask accepts anything you could normally pass to call_user_func_array().
