CPU time used by a Wolfram Language kernel:

In[1]:=
Click for copyable input
Out[1]=

Get time between function evaluations:

In[1]:=
Click for copyable input
Out[1]=

Almost all of the time is spent in the last few evaluations because the precision is adaptive:

In[2]:=
Click for copyable input
Out[2]=
