Depending on the host lisp you are using, couldn't you wrap the calls to 
`COMPILE-FILE` and `LOAD` in code that times those operation?

You could use dynamic variables bound inside the calls to `PERFORM	` to 
ensure you collect only the information you need, and not other calls to 
those functions that happen to occur.

In ACL you could use function wrappers (`fwrap`) and SBCL has a similar 
feature whose name I can't recall at the moment.

Best,
R
