Anything you do in Python on the server will not tell you how long the user waited for the page to arrive at and be fully rendered in the browser -- it will only tell you how long web2py took to generate its response. If you want the full time from the original request leaving the browser until the page is fully rendered in the browser, you would have to use Javascript. See http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/webperformance/basics/.
As for your approach, the problem is that it won't represent the full amount of time web2py takes to generate a response, as it will miss some of the initial setup work web2py does before calling the first model, as well as the work it does after rendering the view. To get a more complete picture, you would probably have to implement some external middleware <http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04/the-core#External-middleware> that completely wraps the web2py request-response cycle. In any case, the time spent in web2py will probably only be a small part of the total time from page request to full page load.
