-#X text 27 35 [cputime] works like essentially like a stop-watch. Once
-it starts \, you can continue to "poll" [cputime] to view the elapsed
-time.;
-#X text 27 82 The odd aspect about comparing [cputime] to a stop-watch
-is that a stop-watch can be stopped! [cputime] can only be started
-or reset. It cannot be stopped.;
-#X text 26 132 As stated above \, [cputime] measures "CPU" time. This
-value may be slightly different than "logical" time or "real" time.
-PD offers two objects which measure "logical" time and "real" time.
-See the reference documents for those objects for more information.

-#X text 21 37 In a fantasy world \, computers could exist somehow beyond
-the restrictions of time and digital computation could be performed
-in ZERO time. However \, that is not the case. Instead \, every process
-within Pd and within your operating system requires at least a few
-nanoseconds of your CPU's time.;
-#X text 22 122 The [timer] object is like a clock that is not constrained
-to the regular laws of physics and the universal space-time continuum.
-It reports "time" measurements as only Pd can see them!;
-#X text 23 181 The [cputime] object is like a clock that measures how
-much time your CPU actually required to carry out your request. Keep
-in mind however that your CPU is busy doing many things simoultaneously
-\, so even though a process might take 5 minutes to complete \, your
-CPU does not pay full attention to that process for the entire 5 minutes.
-Instead \, it simply begins the process \, then refers back to that
-process from time to time until the it is complete. In other cases
-\, your CPU might require a full 5 minutes while Pd might report that
-merely a few milliseconds have passed. This type of discrepancy depends
-heavily on your computer's hardware and the type of processing it is
-performing.;
-#X text 24 350 The [realtime] object is as much like your own wrist
-watch as Pd can possibly manage. It measures time according to your
-operating system's internal clock.;
