hs_err_pid file summary proposal

[Vladimir Ivanov]

Coleen,

I'm curious how important is it to have 3 lines of time info:
   time: Mon Jul 13 22:56:17 2015
   timezone: DFT
   elapsed time: 13 seconds (0d 0h 0m 13s)

IMO elapsed time is the one deserving mentioning in the summary.

Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
