If there is not, then the attached script works...
Usage: timeit command [various arguments...]
Outputs whatever command does, and the number in seconds of how long
command took to run.
#!/bin/ash

# Time how long a command takes in seconds.

opt=$1
case Z$opt in
Z-d) set -x;shift;; # debug mode...
Z-h|Z) echo "Usage : timeit [-h] command [args...]" ; exit ;;
*)
esac
# get start time.
# NOTE: `cat /proc/uptime` outputs two numbers like "123.45 125.67",
# so the sed stuff gets rid of all but the "123"
begintime=`cat /proc/uptime | sed 's/\..*$//'`
"$@"
endtime=`cat /proc/uptime | sed 's/\..*$//'`
expr $endtime - $begintime
