Just to sum-up this point: V-Planner & Decoplanner let you set the descent rate used to calculate dive times in metres per minute. Bottom time is always comprised of descent time. DecoPlanner (I do not remember V-Planner) has an optional "Immediate descent" flag that assumes that all the descents are immediate. If not set, descent time is calculated based upon descent rates set in the Preferences section. (usually 20 m/min).
