Statistic/Monitor Module

THE STATISTIC/MONITOR MODULE
Once inserted into a Assembler, Mining Drill, Chemical Plant, Oil Refinery, or an Electric Furnace, this module will track all created units of what it was assigned to create, as well as units/products consumed/used, I just think its important for efficient builders to be able to monitor their factories, so that they can make them more efficient if possible.
TRACKED STATISTICS:
>Average time required to create each unit/product
>All Items produced
>All Items consumed (Including items consumed by the player, this of course doesn't need a module so that you can track how much resources you use per day)
>All Items transported by train (Becomes available once research is done)
CRAFTING:
A bit similar to ordinary module creation but a bit cheaper
Statistic/Monitoring Module 1 requires:
>5 Electric Circuits
>5 Advanced Circuits
>5s Time
Statistic/Monitoring Module 2 requires:
>1 Statistic/Monitoring Module 2
>5 Advanced Circuits
>2 Processing Unit
>10s Time
Statistic/Monitoring Module 3 requires:
>2 Statistic/Monitoring Module 2
>8 Advanced Circuits
>5 Processing Unit
>15s Time
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MODULE 1, 2, & 3
Module 1
>will be able to track units produced per day.
Module 2
>will be able to track units produced per half a day.
Module 3
>will be able to track units produced in real time.
CONCERN/S:
1) This may affect the games performance as it will need to track each item created and average time required to create it.
(I only have 1 concern for now, but if you think there's more concern, please say so and I'l add it here)
CLOSING:
I think being able to get statistics from your machines is important to be able to create large efficient factories, sure you may be able to monitor each 1 when you start out, but once your factory becomes bigger and bigger, it will become more complex, and a system like this may be able to help.
So what do you guys think? :D

and what about when you in-game press hotkey "P" ?

How about I call myself an idiot for not knowing and not checking controls xD
well this post is wasted, might as well let a moderator delete this. :P
pardon my ignorance.

I'll let the post, because, who know, it might be of some help for someone, but I'll remove the colors, that make my eyes bleed :)
[Edit] and move it to already implemented :).
