Timing with a stopwatch is pretty tough considering how long it takes
for a scan on my system.  I'd have to sit and stare at the screen for
quite a while!  It would be easier for me if there was a debug
statement that showed the elapsed time, or two debug statements (at
the start and finish, obviously) that just print time() so I can
subtract the two.  I'll look at adding something if you don't :)

Cheers and thanks for the work!
