Unfortunately, no, there isn't a built-in function to do this. So, you'll
have to resort to some DIY. But, it's quite easy...
Something like this should do the trick:
<?php
// Record start time.
$start = doubleval(microtime());
// Do your MySQL query here...
// Record the end time and print duration.
$end = doubleval(microtime());
echo "Query took " . strval($end - $start) . " seconds!";
?>
I'm not exactly sure whether doubleval() will convert microtime()'s "123456
450" return string value into a number like 123456.450, but I seem to
remember it does. If not, you'll have to settle for a resolution of only
whole seconds, by using time() instead.
