<<    I think mclock in g77 (v0.5.21 in RedHat 5.2) gets too big, try this 
 one out,
 
 
       do i = 1, 100
          do j = 1, 2000000
 c           wast some time
             www=111.0**0.4
          end do
          write(6,*)  'mclock=',mclock()
       end do
       stop
       end
 
 
 
 The output in my notebook (Acer 500T) looks like,
 
 
   mclock= 2380000
   mclock= 4750000
   ... ...
 
    As you can see, mclock will soon gets values more than integer*4 can 
 take.
 
    Could you tell me a work around ?

How about using cpu_time() (or the equivalent earlier non-standard etime())?
