benchmark class help a little

[jgetner]

well i have wrote my simple benchmark class and it works great except, I would like to fine tune output to make it more user friendly. My question is my output is usally around 0.0005 how can i fine tune this to have something like 0.05
would i just need to loose some decimal positions?

class benchmark
{
	private static $marker = array();

public static function start()
{
	self::$marker['start'] = microtime(true);
}

public static function end()
{
	self::$marker['end'] = microtime(true);
}

public static function mark($name)
{
	self::$marker[$name] = microtime(true);
}

public static function elapsed($point1, $point2, $decimals = 4) 
{							
	return number_format(self::$marker[$point2] - self::$marker[$point1], $decimals);
}
}

You could multiply by 1000 then label it in your output as "milliseconds" instead of "seconds", though I'd be more inclined to do that in the client code than in the class itself to avoid confusion.
