While I like this query, this fits the problem, i.e.
if a client is backing up savesets in parallel this only shows the
amount of time per save set.
There is no way to tell the elapsed time of ALL savesets, since numerous
of the savesets listed
would have been running at the same time.

What you could do is write the mminfo report to a file, then add up the time for each saveset. This would not give you wall clock time because of the parallel nature of how savesets are typically handled, but it might be useful in some other context. Alternatively, you could do what I do which is to archive each savegroup report to a web enabled list, then when I am asked how long such and such client's backup took, I just give the person who asked a link to the savegroup report so they can see what the story is.
