Im in need of perl code that will return the time with milliseconds im trying to find out how long it takes for my search to find results and I really need milliseconds because its never a seconds to return the result

Thanks in advance for everyone that can help me with this problem
 
Try using the Perl module Bencmark. It produces great results. The following is an example of the Benchmark use:

Code:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
use strict;
use Benchmark;

my $count = 500_000;
my $string = 'Sentence 1.  Sentence 2.  Sentence 3.';
my @tokens;

timethese($count, {
    'split array'   => sub {
                                $count = @tokens = split( /\./, $string );
                           },
    'split into @_' => sub {
                                $count = split( /\./, $string );
                           },
    'using tr'      => sub {
                                $count = ( $string =~ tr/\.// );
                            },
    }
);

print "Done.\n";
