As we discussed with @xujyan, this is intended to measure the queueing delay 
for allocation dispatches. I'm still not convinced that this is a helpful 
metric. As implemented, this appears to measure the time between allocation 
intervals. I guess you would start the timer in 
`HierarchicalAllocatorProcess::allocate` and stop it in 
`HierarchicalAllocatorProcess::_allocate`.
