Please don't recommend people to use leading ampersands in subroutine calls:

* http://perl-begin.org/tutorials/bad-elements/#ampersand-in-subroutine-calls

* https://www.socialtext.net/perl5/subroutines_called_with_the_ampersand

Instead write:

        $t->insert("end", gettime());

Regards,

        Shlomi Fish
