By default, the profiler takes one sample per millisecond. In practice, the timing is quite precise on Linux, seemingly within a factor of twoish on OSX, and nowhere close on Windows. So at least on Linux you can simply read samples as milliseconds.
If you want to visualize the relative contributions of each statement, I highly recommend ProfileView. If you use LightTable, it's already built-in via the profile() command. The combination of ProfileView and @profile is, in my (extremely biased) opinion, quite powerful compared to tools I used previously in other programming environments. Finally, there's IProfile.jl, which works via a completely different mechanism but does report raw timings (with some pretty big caveats).
