I've started to really appreciate measuring things by "CPU time" even if it's also a surface-level estimation at best. It does a good job letting you know when a program is slow from blocking, number crunching, and can even suggest more sinister metrics.

GNU `time`, people. It's a wonderfully fun tool, but use it responsibly.
