Summary: What does the value "Timer" measure?

Initial Comment:
See the MonetDB4 documentation: XQuery Documentation -> 3.1 The Mapi Client 
Utility -> 3.1.2 Timing

The "Timer" value is not defined in the documentation, but what does it measure?

When I run an mclient query using the -t option, I get numbers for the 
following line items:  

For example, query command: 
mclient -t -lx -f none q0.xq

results in:

Trans      16.000 msec
Shred       0.000 msec
Query      31.000 msec
Print       0.000 msec
Timer      60.211 msec

So what does "Timer" measure?  Is it the total cost, but it also appears to 
measure something beyond  query too?

Message:
Timer is the wall clock time, i.e. the real time you have to wait for the
query to be executed.
I guess we should document this somewhere.
