Stop Watch with PrintWriter
import java.io.PrintWriter;
/**
* Prints time durations; used for development purposes only.
* <p>
* No threads or system resources are harmed in the making of a stop watch. A
* stop watch simply remembers the start time (and elapsed time when paused) and
* prints the total "running" time when either {@link #mark} or
* {@link #stop} is called.
* <p>
* {@link #stop} doesn't really stop anything. You can call stop as many times
* as you like and it will print the time elapsed since start. It would be easy
* to change this behavior, but I haven't needed to.
