How to know query execution time in sql plus

Question

HI
I want to know the query execution time in sql plus along with statistics
I say set time on ;
set autotrace on ;
select * from view where usr_id='abcd';
if the result is 300 rows it scrolls till all the rows are retrieved and finally gives me execution time as 40 seconds or 1 minute.. (this is after all the records are scrolled )
but when i execute it in toad it gives 350 milli seconds..
i want to see the execution time in sql how to do this
database server 11g and client is 10g
regards
raj
