You can see about superlatives at this site at http://www.spanishdict.com/topics/show/52. It covers it real nice. Though i am not a native Spanish (nor English) speaker, it does make sense that this is what they mean. - arielye1, Aug 10, 2013
It does make sense that is "It's been such a long time", since it's a superlative of the word cuanto which means somthing like "as much", and tiempo which is "time". Hence it can basically be translated as "so much time". - arielye1, Aug 10, 2013

Yes. Somehow the "ísimo" indicates that the scales of time is given in long intervals.
