Description
When in progress, a submittable's elapsed solve time on the Grid will update every 30s - we can consider client-side incrementing the timer while periodically syncing server-side to provide a more granular solve time update while keeping server load stable.

Research direction
Start by locating the Grid implementation that displays a submittable's elapsed solve time and trace the existing 30-second server update. Determine how client-side time can be incremented between syncs, then verify that the displayed time remains accurate and server synchronization still occurs at the intended interval.
