I think it may be useful for a user to be able to answer the "average
sleep time" for a vacuum, especially because the vacuum cost
limit and delay can be adjusted on the fly for a running vacuum.
If we only show the total sleep time, the user could make wrong
assumptions about how long each sleep took and they might
assume that all sleep delays for a particular vacuum run have been
uniform in duration, when in-fact they may not have been.
