Timestamp and time used for a task

[larslilja]

Problem Statement

Today it's a bit of guess work how long time a task takes and it will be based on the CML infrastructure etc.

Please describe the problem to be addressed by the proposed feature.

Proposed Solution

It would be awesome to add a time stamp in the log with the start and the finish point as well as output the task took xx minutes to complete. That will help the user to know when something is not working etc. Before they have waited 60 minutes.

The advance thing would be to save it to a variable so when i call the script the second time we could use the "baseline" to warn the customer that we have used more time that usual.

Please describe what you envision the solution to this problem would look like.

Alternatives Considered

Please briefly describe which alternatives, if any, have been considered, including merits of alternate approaches and
tradeoffs being made.

Additional Context
