How to check query time in PL/SQL?


I have some update statements in my pl/sql procedure that I want to keep check
of the timing every time I execute it.  I notice that I can't use 'start/stop
timing' in pl/sql like I do in sqlplus.  Is there any other way to check the
query time in pl/sql?


Ans:
start_time := dbms_utility.get_time;
update ...
elapsed_time := dbms_utility.get_time - start_time;

(hundredths of a second)
