Client side or server side, there's no persisting connection between the client
and the server; so you can't measure elapsed times.  You can, in theory at
least, make a list of which pages were served up, and when.  But you cannot
easily determine how much elapsed time was spent on a particular site.
You don't know if that page which was served up at 8 AM was being looked
at for 8 seconds, 8 minutes, or 8 hours.
