%dm%fs %dm%fs
", <shell user minutes>,
		  <shell user seconds>, <shell system minutes>,
		  <shell system seconds>, <children user minutes>,
		  <children user seconds>, <children system minutes>,
		  <children system seconds>

       The  four  pairs  of  times  shall  correspond to the members of the <sys/times.h> tms structure (defined in the Base Definitions volume of
       IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 13, Headers) as returned by times(): tms_utime, tms_stime, tms_cutime, and tms_cstime, respectively.
