There's an additional debug option that tracks things per-sconscript, 
after someone got interested in that somewhere in the past two years. It 
kinda sounds like you're already using it from your wording, but just in 
case:

--debug-=time,sconscript

SCons itself doesn't track things at a more granular level than that, 
you'd have to set up some kind of profiling, and then figure out how to 
extract that data from the action.
