> The StopWatch {{getTime}} method [was deprecated in 
> 3.16.0|https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/08988a2c9029b1625115b3e3c6d30cb0fd1de57a/src/changes/changes.xml#L132-L135].
> We have some problems with the deprecation and would like to have it reverted:
> * We're unable to find the exact reasons for the deprecation because there is 
> no issue/PR with further explanation. So for us it is not comprehensible.
> * {{getTime}} is a lot shorter as writing {{getDuration().toMillis()}} or 
> {{getTime(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)}}
> * According to our tests {{getTime}} is around 10% faster than 
> {{getDuration().toMillis()}} (as it just divides 2 longs instead of 
> instantiating a new object)
> * The method has been present for the last 22 years and is well established. 
> Changing it would result in a lot of code changes for us.
