# How you use the RUNTIMESTATISTICS attribute

- To use the RUNTIMESTATISTICS attribute in `ij`, turn on and off RUNTIMESTATISTICS using the `SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_RUNTIMESTATISTICS()` system procedure (see the Java DB Reference Manual for more information):

      -- turn on RUNTIMESTATISTICS for connection:
      CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_RUNTIMESTATISTICS(1);
      -- execute complex query here -- step through the result set
      -- access runtime statistics information:
      VALUES SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_GET_RUNTIMESTATISTICS();
      CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_RUNTIMESTATISTICS(0);

- Turn on statistics timing using the `SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_STATISTICS_TIMING` system procedure (see the Java DB Reference Manual for more information). If you do not turn on statistics timing, you will see the statement execution plan only, and not the timing information.

      CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_RUNTIMESTATISTICS(1);
      CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_STATISTICS_TIMING(1);

Although the syntax is different, the basic steps for working with RUNTIMESTATISTICS are the same in a Java program.
If you are working in `ij`, set the display width to 5000 or another high number:

    MaximumDisplayWidth 5000
