The software ejecution time

Hector Hugo Alpizar Cesena

I working on a intranet software (not web, using windows form, using microsoft clickonce). The software get information from the database, process it then update it (y'all know regular stuff). But the users sometimes let my know that is kind of slow and that takes a lot of time to process request or a reponse with the database. The software also sends e-mails depending the info status.
And my question is, how can I calculate the time that the software takes to process a resquest or a response?
You can recoment articles, books or tutorials

Hello
i dont know that what the process you are using for processing, but i think you can calculate time by using datetime function..like this
Dim startdate As DateTime = DateTime.Now
''-----------------------
'' Processing........
''-----------------------
Dim Enddate As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Dim Time_difference As TimeSpan = Enddate - startdate

thanks

I understand what you are try to tell me and thanks. But also I want to know if this issue is cause by the hardware, the network or maybe the algorithm has a lot of instructions methods and commands. So I want to calculate the speed of my algorithm in the worst case scenario and the best scenario. How can I do that?
