Enables or disables GC total time measurement; returns setting. See GC.total_time.

When argument object is nil or false, disables total time measurement; GC.measure_total_time then returns false:

Example

GC.measure_total_time = nil   # => nil
GC.measure_total_time         # => false
GC.measure_total_time = false # => false
GC.measure_total_time         # => false

Otherwise, enables total time measurement; GC.measure_total_time then returns true:

Example

GC.measure_total_time = true # => true
GC.measure_total_time        # => true
GC.measure_total_time = :foo # => :foo
GC.measure_total_time        # => true

Note that when enabled, total time measurement affects performance.
