Is there a better way to get execution time than from eplusout.end?

I'm looking into the sensitivity of energy use and execution time to various parameters (timestep, surface convection, geometry level of detail, etc.). For this I need to save the execution time of each run.

As it stands I'm parsing the string in the eplusout.end file:

Elapsed Time=00hr 01min  1.00sec

But is there a better way? I've had a look in the SQLite file but can't see anything.
