The procedure that generates a backup has got to be responsible for
recording both the start and stop times. If it does not do so then
it's fatally flawed. (Note also that you had better be careful to get
the time as seen on the server machine's clock ... this could be a nasty
gotcha if the backup is run on a different machine, such as an NFS
server.)
