Three meanings of time in Proust's In Seach of Lost Time

Obviously there are many aspects or dimensions to the word or concept "time" in Proust's In Search of Lost Time, but as I read volume 3, The Guermantes Way, in the excellent Mark Traharne translation (Penguin ed.) I'm struck by one aspect seldom written about (I think) - the actual real-time of reading this novel. In that sense, there are three dimensions (at least) to Proustian time: first, the dimension explicitly declared in the title and in the the title of the final volume, time as memory, as something that eludes each of us every day as it forever slips past us but that through certain conscious (or unconscious) acts - memory, recollection, and re-creation through art - we can recover or reverse, which is the over-arching theme of these books, recollecting and re-creating the life of the author and narrator (both named Marcel); 2nd, the scope of one's life seen as a event in continuous time - these novels cover a span of about 35 years I think - that are obviously, no matter what level of detail the author recollects - condensed almost unimaginably to fit the scope of even the most ambitious novel - that is, a reader could no doubt work through the entire 7-volume 35-year opus in, say, a week? two weeks maybe? - though most (like me) take about 2 weeks for any one volume and spread them out over many years; and 3rd, what's really striking me in The Guermantes Way, is the least-considered aspect of time: Proust may be unique in this but I believe some of his extended scenes, such as the 100-page account of an evening in the salon at Mme de Villeparisis's, actually are longer in literary time than in actual time - that is, it takes the typical reader maybe 5 or 6 hours to read this passage about maybe a 3-hour evening gathering - so Proust actually "captures" time by both recollection and regression, by slowing time down - like rewinding and watching the play or scene again in slo-mo to catch details that once eluded - that's maybe the true nature and technique in his search for the past.
