sumtimes

Sum the outputs of gnu time -p

E.g. you want to time multiple stages of a pipeline and sum them to get an overall runtime:

❯ time -p -o foo.time sleep 2
❯ time -p -o bar.time sleep 12

❯ cat foo.time
real 2.01
user 0.00
sys 0.00

❯ cat bar.time
real 12.00
user 0.00
sys 0.00

❯ sumtimes foo.time bar.time
real 14.01s
user 0s
sys  0s
