# stopMeasuring()

Ends recording performance metrics within a block of code.

## Declaration

```swift
func stopMeasuring()
```

## Discussion

Discussion Call this method to end the measurement of metrics by the measureMetrics(_:automaticallyStartMeasuring:for:) method. Measurement will end immediately after this method is called from within the measured block. note: You must call measureMetrics(_:automaticallyStartMeasuring:for:) with an automaticallyStartMeasuring value of false in order to set a custom end point with stopMeasuring().
