% \begin{function}{\sys_gzero_timer:}

%   Resets the timer to zero.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP]{\sys_timer:}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{sys_timer:}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Expands to the current value of the engine's timer clock, a
%   non-negative integer.  In engines without clock support this expands
%   to $0$ after an error.  In \LuaTeX{} only the CPU time is measured,
%   while in other engines real time is measured (including time waiting
%   for user input).
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Benchmark}
%
% \begin{variable}{\g_benchmark_duration_target_fp}
%   This variable (default value: $1$) controls roughly for how long
%   \cs{benchmark:n} will repeat code to more accurately benchmark it.
%   The actual duration of one call to \cs{benchmark:n} typically lasts
%   between half and twice \cs{g_benchmark_duration_target_fp} seconds,
%   unless of course running the code only once already lasts longer
%   than this.
% \end{variable}
%
% \begin{function}{\benchmark_once:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{benchmark_once:n} \Arg{code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Prints to the terminal the time taken by \TeX{} to run the
%   \meta{code}, and an estimated number of elementary operations.  The
%   \meta{code} is run only once so the time may be quite inaccurate for
%   fast code.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\benchmark:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{benchmark:n} \Arg{code}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Prints to the terminal the time taken by \TeX{} to run the
%   \meta{code}, and an estimated number of elementary operations.  The
%   \meta{code} may be run many times and not within a group, thus code
%   with side-effects may cause problems.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\benchmark_tic:, \benchmark_toc:}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{benchmark_tic:} \meta{slow code} \cs{benchmark_toc:}
%   \end{syntax}
%   When it is not possible to run \cs{benchmark:n} (e.g., the code is
%   part of the execution of a package which cannot be looped) the
%   tic/toc commands can be used instead to time between two points in
%   the code.  When executed, \cs{benchmark_tic:} will print a line to the
%   terminal, and \cs{benchmark_toc:} will print a matching line with a
%   time to indicate the duration between them in seconds.
%   These commands can be nested.
% \end{function}

% \begin{variable}{\g_@@_nesting_int}
% \begin{macro}{\@@_raw:nN, \@@_raw_aux:N, \@@_raw_end:N}

%
%   If the number of copies required is large, defining \cs{@@_tmp:w}
%   would exhaust \TeX{}'s main memory. In that case, we replicate
%   $|#1|/5000$ times the given code before passing it to the main call
%   to \cs{@@_tmp:w}.  Of course the division rounds to an integer, so
%   that step introduces a relative error of order at most
%   $5000/500000$, less than many other sources of variability.
%
%   We subtract the time for another call to \cs{@@_tmp:w}, with the

%
% \begin{macro}{\benchmark_once:n}
%   Convert the raw time from scaled seconds to seconds, and convert to

%   four times.  To save time we reuse the result of the first pass if
