+# Example: Getting run time of a thread in FreeBSD
+
+I wrote this example app when researching how to find the run time of a
+specific thread. The OpenJDK garbage collector implementations as well as other
+parts of the OpenJDK needs this information. Since I had written it, I figured
+I might as well share it with the community. Perhaps some will find it useful.
