Well, if someone wants to have _optional_ 'timed' feature, ha/she can
install Time::HiRes module.  I think that it is not in Perl core, but
there are RPM and deb packages with Time::HiRes available in extras.
If module is not installed, then only 'timed' feature is not available.


P.S. "Naming is the hardest thing"; should this feature be named 'timed',
or do any of you have some better name for it?

P.P.S. Originally the part about "time to generate page" was for me to be
able to benchmark new code... but then I realized that benchmarking 
'blame_incremental' view on single-core computer, where server process
and AJAX-y JavaScript competes for CPU doesn't a good benchmark make.
Still, this part can be useful.
