Here are two examples:

Not necessary the best just the first two that came up with a Google
search. <g>
These methods output to the Debug Window which means you need to run
the run the instrumentation in the VBIDE. You can change them to
output to a file, or to on outside viewer.
Check out the API calls DebugOutputString() and DebugBreak(), then
download a DebugViewer

Keep in mind that all methods of measuring are subject to a Heisenberg
effect. Just instrumenting a test can effect results, and results are
more qualitative than quantitative. <g>
