Most people use Microsoft Windows, so? Is that a reasonable argument to use it?

Of course is meaningful to me, It would be meaningful for anybody that have 
read what means those results.

help(proc.time)

Description

proc.time determines how much real and CPU time (in seconds) the currently 
running R process has already taken.

Details

proc.time returns five elements for backwards compatibility, but its print 
method prints a named vector of length 3. The first two entries are the total 
user and system CPU times of the current Rprocess and any child processes on 
which it has waited, and the third entry is the ‘real’ elapsed time since the 
process was started.
