How important each combat is depends upon the players. If the players think that a particular combat encounter is just a timefiller and resource grinder then it might not have meaning for them at all no matter how much time is spent on it.  An important showdown with a bad guy that has been a pain the PC's collective arses for a long time in the campaign is going to be significant and that doesn't rest on how much time is spent resolving the conflict.</blockquote>
