Also called execution time. The total time required for the computer to complete a task, including disk accesses, memory accesses, I/O activi­ties, operating system overhead, CPU execution time, and so on.
 

Throughput

Also called bandwidth. Another measure of perfor­mance, it is the number of tasks completed per unit of time.
