how much time an action took

it is possible to tell how much time took a target to run, or a process within a target, like exec?

something like ...

<target ...>
    <time action="start" property="myTime" pattern=....>
    <exec ..
  <time action="stop" pattern=....>

  <echo>the action took ${myTime}</echo>
...


is there something like this available?

Antelope has this too.  See docs for the stopwatch task at:

http://antelope.tigris.org/nonav/docs/manual/bk03ch10.html

You might also be interested in the performance monitor, which can give 
you a report on the time it takes for each target to run:

http://antelope.tigris.org/nonav/docs/manual/bk03ch27.html

Both of these have been included in ant-contrib also, see ant-contrib 
docs at:
