If you have previously run catman, you must rename or delete the formatted
pages in /usr/man/cat1/csh.1 before the testing or use

time nroff -man /usr/share/man1/csh.1 > /dev/null

Someone pointed out that 'time man csh' tends to be a bit slower 
than 'time nroff', so please use these numbers with caution.
