Yeah I have shell access and I can execute the time command.
 
The output of 'time "script.cgi"' is:
script.cgi: command not found

So I played a little around, my best shot was something like this:
'time "perl -e script.cgi"'
But whatever I do, it always says that it can't find the command
between the quotation marks.

However the output format looks great and I believe that it is what I
need:
0.000u 0.000s 0:00.00 0.0% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
Am I missing something?
