Time to run utilities

Does anyone know of a way to determine how long it takes for a utility to run on the server; such as Design, Compact, Catalog, etc. Can pull that information out of the log manually, but that takes time and I’m really looking for something that will show that information in a quick, usable format. We would like to track this so we can periodically check to make sure backups aren’t overlapping, etc. Thanks for any insights. Billy
