Why does Google search tell me how long it took to perform a search? It is never more than one second, which is no big deal for me. This has always confused me. For example:

When I search for "Arsenal Football Club" this is what I see: "About 43,300,000 results (0.58 seconds)"

Why?!

Sure enough, I tried to Bing the same term and only got "8,990,000 RESULTS"

Google wins this time, although Bing types "results" in all caps.

Hey TBT!

Love the new album! I've been lucky enough to see you in Saint Paul, Minneapolis, New York City, Grand Rapids (MN), and Falls Church, and I'm going to be checking you guys out at the Newport Folk Festival next weekend.

What is the best venue you have ever played? What is a dream venue that you'd like to play but still haven't played?

Who is more fun to perform for: Letterman or Conan?

Vestigial features seem to be something Google loves to ditch. (For an example, see Mr. Wiley's well-written response to the lengthy question in this AMA about removing the Google Discussion search filter.)
