There is indeed a hidden cooldown on [Insightful Earthstorm Diamond] of 15 seconds. Here is the WWS: Skyhoof - WWS

I cast Rank 2 Healing Wave for about 3.5 hours. I had 10 haste rating. I had 7,237 casts and the meta gem procced 278 times, for a proc rate of 3.84%. The shortest time between procs was 14.9 seconds. The longest time between procs was 4 minutes, 8.8 seconds. The average time between procs was 44.8 seconds.

In the first test, I had a haste trinket and probably over 200 spell haste rating. The proc rate was about 3.5% in that test. However, we would expect the proc rate to decrease as spell haste increases if there was a hidden cooldown. With so much spell haste, I was able to cast more heals in the hidden cooldown period, thus lowering the proc rate.
