Do you know anything about "CPU cycling"? Can I detect the CPU cycles which are elapsed during runtime? I need a "time value" for detecting runtime only.

Hmm, sorry I've only heard of low level assembly ways of doing that. Doesn't sound very platform-independent! ;-)

It's not Boost, but you can have a look at PAPI ( http://icl.cs.utk.edu/papi/ )
