I think using Duration would be OK here, even though the CPU time was used up in a discontinuous manner. The returned value is, in essence, a sum of many smaller durations. I'd also suggest adjusting the two method names: startTime() -> startInstant() totalTime() -> totalCpuDuration() Those communicate the intent more clearly IMO. Stephen
