time

After my second install of FreeBSD last week, I am confused as to the best way to go about fixing my system's defective clock. I thought I set up FreeBSD correctly, yet whenever the computer boots up it shows UTC as the time, but shows my time zone as "CST" (UTC-6). The time is also always more...

Is there a FreeBSD equivalent to the Linux command perf stat -r 10 <your app and arguments> that will run a command 10 times and give timing data?
