What you present are times aggregated over CPUs in the NUMA nodes, this
seems a bit lossy interface. 

Despite you the aggregated information is sufficient for your
monitoring, I think it's worth providing the information with the
original granularity.

Note that cpuacct v1 controller used to report such percpu runtime
stats. The v2 implementation would rather build upon the rstat API.
