Reporting cpu times to profile KSPSolve (and others)

["Dave May" <dave.mayhem23@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey petsc folk,
    What is the best way to obtain timing information to profile the performance 
of KSPSolve (or SNESSolve)? Currently I have written some specific KSP monitors, 
but it I think it would be useful to have access to this information all the time without
having to go through the monitor. It seems like each object should know how to time 
some of its operations.

It would be very useful to have functions such as 
  KSPGetCPUTime(KSP ksp,PetscLogDouble *time)
to report the total solution time required by the KSPSolve() and
  KSPGetCPUTimeHistory(KSP ksp,PetscLogDouble *time[],PetscInt *na)
which is like KSPGetResidualHistory() but returns the accumulated cpu time for each
iterate

It would also be useful to have a default KSP monitor which could report the time per iterate 
or accumulate time. For example something like
  40 KSP Residual norm 1.519638506430e-01 Time 1.000000000000e-03
  41 KSP Residual norm 1.510346481853e-01 Time 1.510346481853e-02

Is there a better approach to what I've been doing and are there plans to add any
additional features to help profile individual operations on each object?

Cheers,
    Dave
