Calling a function 5 times a second is basically no processing too bad KTM calls like 20-30 internal functions every frame >_>
BTW KTM interestingly enough masks a lot of the processing time from itself by having the part that uses the most CPU time actually be its own internal profiler which of course doesn't measure the time it takes for it doing its own stuff (this is based on using the blizzard profiler checking function time).
Here's an example of how bad KTM is while idling in the middle of nowhere (this picture is with ~200 addons for testing purposes on PTR).
