Build a three-frames sequence structure. In the first and third frames place the tick count VI and in the second frame place your code. Subtract the value of the counter in the first frame from the value of the counter in the third frame and you have your time (in ms).

Note that updating front panel controls can create some serious jitter, so unless this is part of your test, you should not update any control inside the second frame.

If the time taken to execute the code is very small (<10ms), the overhead required to call the counters might affect your readings.

In this case,

1 Get start time from tick counter.

2 Perform a known number of operations in a loop

3 Get stop time from another tick counter

4 Calculate the avg. time for the operation using the #operations and the elapsed time.

Would Tools/Advanced/Profile Vi's/Timing Stats and Details be of use?
