Further down (under the heading "Storage layout") you'll find the 
description of the per-host "backups" file.  The columns that interest 
you are 3 (Start Time), 4 (End Time) and 6 (size).  Columns 3 and 4 are 
used to compute the Duration in the web interface, but column 6 does not 
appear to be utilized.

Your choices are:
* modify the source
* make a feature request
* perform a manual calculation
