+TIMINGS
+-------
+As displayed in the example above we can display 3 types of timings.
+We always display the time the counters were enabled/alive:
+
+        83.409183620 seconds time elapsed
+
+For workload sessions we also display time the workloads spent in
+user/system lands:
+
+        74.684747000 seconds user
+         8.739217000 seconds sys
+
+Those times are the very same as displayed by the 'time' tool.
