Toggling of time display: 
<pre>

kash> o := Order(Z,2,110);
Generating polynomial: x^2 - 110

kash> Time(true);
true
Time: 0 ms
kash> O := OrderMaximal(o);
Generating polynomial: x^2 - 110
Discriminant: 440 

Time: 0 ms
kash> OrderUnitsFund(O);
[ [21, 2] ]
Time: 10 ms
kash> Time();
false
kash> OrderClassGroup(O);
> [ 2, [ 2 ] ]

</pre>
