Hope someone can answer this one…

What exactly does {elapsed_time} report? Is it the time for that template, or the entire page?

So say I have 1 main template (Template A) and inside of it, among other things, two embedded templates (Template B & Template C).

If I put {elapsed_time} at the bottom of Template A, will it report the time taken to interpret Template B & C in addition to the time taken to interpret A? Or will it just include A?

Or another situation… can I put it in Template C to just get the time its taking Template C to be interpreted?

Thanks for any insight.

From the docs:

elapsed_time
{elapsed_time}
The amount of time, in seconds, it took ExpressionEngine to render the current page.

So, yes indeed the entire page.

Thanks, I swear I did a search yesterday and came up empty.

Maybe I searched on the main site, not on the documentation mini-site.
