CQ6 - Workflow running time about workflow-run-crate HOT 4 CLOSED

This should probably be "How long did this workflow take to run?" It only seems useful if accompanied by information on the computing infrastructure used for the run.

This should probably be "How long did this workflow take to run?"

The "does" vs "did" here is similar to the discussion on resource usage in #10: "does" implies a prior knowledge from some statistics while "did" is simply a statement of fact regarding the represented run. The answer to the latter is simply to subtract the startTime from the endTime, so I guess the description for this issue also needs to be clarified.

Yes, and that's why including a meaningful estimated running time is probably too complicated. That would have to refer to an average system, but what exactly is an average system? Even assuming such a system could be identified, its details would have to be included, but it would need to be clear that they refer to a hypotetical system where the workflow is supposed to run in the specified amount of time, and not to the actual system where the run described in the crate took place. The actual running time given by endTime - startTime is sufficient to get an idea of the order of magnitude. I am therefore closing this as the information is already represented in the profiles.
