Better KSH commands
Are there any documents available for checking the execution time taken by ksh commands?

My requirement is to fine tune a set of shell scripts having lot of "echos" and "date"s.
Is there a better replacement for the below code?.
Code:
 
echo "ABC process started on `date`"
some code..
echo "ABC process ended on `date`"
echo "BAC process started on `date`"
some code
echo "BAC process ended on `date`"
.......................
.......................
Thus it goes on...

These lines with very less difference is repeated more than 3000 times in my shell script.Please post any method by which I can reduce the execution time.
