That's a really good question.

pfsdb.com is usually great for this kind of thing, but Duration isn't one of the options you can narrow it down by. Maybe if anyone knows who makes the site, we can get it added! If only there was a contact link somewhere.

How good are you with excel? If you download the csv file from here you can open it with excel and add a filter. If you don't know how to do that I can put up some instructions.

d20pfsrd has a list filter for all Pathfinder classes

The text strings used to describe duration are kind of varied which makes ordering by duration a bit cumbersome. It could be done though it'd just take some time to setup right.

However, PFSDB does ping entries in the search box against duration, so you can filter out spells of a specific duration. While this isn't as good as ordering by duration, it at least allows you to get a list of a certain type.

Examples:

Instantaneous - note, this search also picks up spells that have the term 'instantaneous' in other attributes.
1/round per level
1/minute per level
1/hour per level
1/day per level

Hope this helps :)

There are a lot of odd and/or unhelpful durations out there. I started with a list of 2002 spells in the Pathfinder Community database, sorted them by Duration, weeded out many that were clearly less than 10 min/level on the basis of the Duration field alone, and that still left 945 spells with:
