Hi Phil, 

My original thought about the $COM string is because you *know* this is when 
an action is executed. I'm not too familiar w/ SCons yet, so I don't know a 
pure-SCons way to trap an action execution. That is, SCons dependency 
building may not (likely) coincide with action execution. Likely the SCons 
dependency inspection phase is far shorter than the builds, so trapping at 
the build phase (e.g. not in the $COM string) won't introduce significant 
error. 

To me the key points are trapping tic and toc on a wall-clock in a natural, 
native SCons manner. 

I agree that having build times in your db is a good idea. If I ever 
something out I'll post it.
