Then you will have to put debugging statements directly into your code that
record how long it takes to perform your operations.  Use the GetTickCount()
function, ie:

    inline DWORD GetElapsed(DWORD Start, DWORD End)
    {
        return (dwEnd >= dwStart) ? (dwEnd - dwStart) : ((0xFFFFFFFF -
dwStart) + dwEnd);
    }

    {
        DWORD dwStart = ::GetTickCount();.
        // do something ...
        DWORD dwElapsed = GetElapsed(dwStart, ::GetTickCount());.
        // report what the operation was and the elapsed time to perform it

        //...

        dwStart = ::GetTickCount();.
        // do something else ...
        dwElapsed = GetElapsed(dwStart, ::GetTickCount());.
        // report what the operation was and the elapsed time to perform it

        // and so on ...
    }

Once you have the elapsed time for your operations, you can report them
somewhere, such as to a text file that the user can then email back to you.
Alternatively, if you use OutputDebugString(), then the user can use
third-party trace tools, such as DebugView from http://www.sysinternals.com,
to view the code's activity in real-time, and then save the detailed log and
send it to you.
