  | ELAPTIME=
  |   ALL
  |         Indicates that the elapsed time and the start
  |         timestamp of each call are to be included in the
  |         output.
  |         When ELAPTIME=ALL is specified, the elapsed time in
  |         seconds and the start timestamp of each call
  |         ('ELAPSED SEC=x.xxxxxx      YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS.SS',
  |         48 bytes) are added to the trace output of each call.
  |         When the BTSOUT LRECL is more than 181, the output,
  |         which includes the elapsed time and execution time,
  |         is printed on a single line without being split by
  |         the default LRECL 133.
