Using postgresql.conf or SET, you can enable timestamps on the log file,
and 7.2 psql has a \timing command. Also EXPLAIN ANALYZE query shows
times.
Actually, we should have something that shoots out just the query and
the duration into the log file. I don't see that capability now.
I see it on the TODO list:
* Allow logging of query durations
