Hello Doug,

With patch and ‘-I dtgvpf’ options:
pgrun pgbench -i -s 2000 -F 90 -q -I dtgvpf
dropping old tables...
creating tables...
generating data...
…
200000000 of 200000000 tuples (100%) done (elapsed 168.76 s, remaining 0.00 s)
vacuuming...
creating primary keys...
creating foreign keys...
total time: 353.52 s (drop 1.67 s, tables 0.11 s, insert 168.82 s, commit 0.46 
s, primary 92.32 s, foreign 40.11 s, vacuum 50.03 s)
done.

I'm in favor of such a feature.

However, I think that the durations should be shown in the order in which the initialization is performed.

I would suggest to:

- move the time measure in the initialization loop, instead of doing it
 in each function, so that it is done just in one place.

- maybe store the actions in some array/list data structure, eg:
  "{ char * phase; double duration; }", so that they can be kept
  in order and eventually repeated.

In order to extract the commit time, I'd say that explicit begin and commit should be separate instructions triggerred by '(' and ')'.

Also, I'm not sure of the one line display, maybe it could be done while it is in progress, i.e. something like:
  dropping table...
  table drop: 1.67 s
  creating table...
  table creation: 0.11 s
  ...
In which case there is no need for storing the actions and their durations, only the running total is needed.
