FFMPEG - Display time taken to convert

How is it possible to display the time taken to convert a video using FFMPEG ?

i am using the below command and the time returned as benchmark is not exactly the time taken to complete the conversion.. i am confused how can it be missing in a such nice tool.

ffmpeg -cpuflags -sse-sse2-sse3-sse3slow-sse4.1-sse4.2+mmx -i E:/MSC/test.flv ^
  -benchmark E:/MSC/testmmx.mp4

If you can use Bash it has the time command

time: time [-p] pipeline
    Report time consumed by pipeline's execution.

    Execute PIPELINE and print a summary of the real time, user CPU time,
    and system CPU time spent executing PIPELINE when it terminates.

Example

$ time ffmpeg -i infile outfile

real    0m3.682s
user    0m0.015s
sys     0m0.000s

I offer Cygwin for Windows, which includes Bash and time
