You can create a filter to intercept action execution time.

 public class ActionTiming :ActionFilterAttribute {
    private static readonly ILog Logger = LogManager.GetLogger("TimingLogger");
    private string controllerName = string.Empty;
    private string actionName = string.Empty;

    private Stopwatch intertime = Stopwatch.StartNew();
    public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
    {
        intertime.Restart();
        controllerName = filterContext.RouteData.Values["controller"].ToString();
        actionName = filterContext.RouteData.Values["action"].ToString();
        var message = string.Format("{0} controller: {1} action: {2}", "OnActionExecuting", controllerName, actionName);
        Logger.Info(message);

    }

    public override void OnResultExecuted(ResultExecutedContext filterContext)
    {

        var message = string.Format("{0} controller: {1} action: {2}, time (ms): {3}", "OnResultExecuted", controllerName, actionName, intertime.ElapsedMilliseconds);
        Logger.Info(message);
    }


}

Then, you can register this filter globally in Application_Start or use it as attribute.
