+// Displays elapsed seconds since construction as double.
+//
+// Usage:
+//
+// spdlog::stopwatch sw;
+// ...
+// spdlog::debug("Elapsed: {} seconds", sw);    =>  "Elapsed 0.005116733 seconds"
+// spdlog::info("Elapsed: {:.6} seconds", sw);  =>  "Elapsed 0.005163 seconds"

+// If other units are needed (e.g. millis instead of double), include "fmt/chrono.h" and use "duration_cast<..>(sw.elapsed())":
