I need to measure time elapsed in seconds, like this:

auto start = Clock.currStdTime();
// some stuff
auto stop = Clock.currStdTime();
auto duration = (stop-start)/10000000;

This works, but I wonder if there is something better that using the magic constant 10000000. I read about 10.secs giving the duration of 10 seconds, but I don't understand how to adapt this to my case. I've read the documentation of core.time, std.datetime (and the Introduction to this package) but I can't make head or tail of it.

PS: It's not about benchmarking. I'd like to show the user the time elapsed.
