The latest alpha release of LBackup supports new configuration options allowing 
the time required for various backup related operations to be reported.

One such option is enable human readable reporting on the timing of the 
snapshot generation. Quoted below is an example of the output from the latest 
alpha release.

The current granularity of the timing system mentioned above is 1 second. 
LBackup is using the the 'date' command to calculate timing.

If you are using the shell to measure the time required and you require 
increased granularity with simplicity, then I would recommend the use of the 
'time' command.

A majority of this post is from the following LBackup discussion thread :

Finally, I believe that 118788 bytes/sec is approximately 1.2 MB/sec

Hope this helps.
