I am trying to use the times function from the unix library. I remark quite
big variation (for utime, stime and the sum) when I measure many times the same
computation (starting myself a gc with "gc();gc();" before each computation).
Here is an example of this variation :
unification : times = 1.01666666667+0.133333333333=1.15
unification : times = 0.666666666667+0.15=0.816666666667
unification : times = 1.13333333333+0.166666666667=1.3
unification : times = 1.01666666667+0.233333333333=1.25
unification : times = 0.65+0.116666666667=0.766666666667
min = 0.766666666667
max = 1.3
!!!
Why ???
