I'd like to run same query repeatedly and see how long it takes each time.

I thought \watch would be excellent for this, but it turns out that using \watch suppresses the output of \timing.

Is this intentional, or unavoidable?  

Also, is it just or does the inability to watch more frequently than once a second make it a lot less useful than it could be?


Cheers,

Jeff
