To me, the total time would be reported in the "translation time", which
actually does seem to implement that (minus threading bugs).

Moses seems to differentiate between doing lookups in the phrase table or
grammar (collecting options) and searching over those options (which also
includes lookups to the LM -- oh well). If we keep all 3 numbers, it would
seem reasonable that "translation time" and "search" should serve different
purposes.
