In Fig. 17.24, we implemented a stream pipeline that rolled a die 60,000,000 times using values produced by SecureRandom method ints. Package java.time contains types Instant and Duration that you can use to capture the time before and after evaluating the stream pipeline, then calculate the difference between the Instants to determine the total time. Use Instant’s static method now to get the current time. To determine the difference between two Instants, use class Duration’s static method between, which returns a Duration object containing the time difference. Duration provides methods like toMillis to return a duration in milliseconds. Use these timing techniques to time the original stream pipeline’s operation, then do so again using class Random from package java.util, rather than SecureRandom.
