Well, in the example I'm looking at, which runs for 30 seconds, the "sum" column of the stats adds up to about 10 seconds total. So, there is 20 seconds unaccounted for. Interestingly enough, if I let the guest just sit idle for 30 seconds, the stats do sum up to about 30 seconds. Will get to the bottom of it, but wanted to make sure I was not missing something obvious.
