Awesome to hear! The version I used at the Obama campaign had other bells and whistles like color coding the log entry. I just arbitrarily picked some time I thought was slow, made it read, less slow, made it yellow, others green. That might be a nice addition still.

I've found timestamping Rails.logger output helps considerably, and offers a similar - yet more generic - insight.
