etime is fine with me. The other problem here is that it's counting duration 
from when slapd received the request (which is fine) but usually the op gets 
queued immediately after. For this etime to be useful we need to know both the 
amount of time spent queued, and the amount of time spent actually executing. 
qtime and etime?
