+## process.resourceUsage()
+<!-- YAML

+
+* Returns: {Object} containing resource usage measures for the current process
+
+Note: Windows only provides the following resource usage measures:
+
+- `userCpuTimeUsedSec`
+- `userCpuTimeUsedMs`
+- `systemCpuTimeUsedSec`
+- `systemCpuTimeUsedMs`
+- `blockInputOperations`
+- `blockOutputOperations`
+
+On Windows, all other values are `0`.
+
+On Linux, some fields may or may not be used/set to non-zero values depending on
+the kernel version. See the getrusage(2) man page for more information.
+
+Example return value:
+
+```js
+    { userCpuTimeUsedSec: 0,
+      userCpuTimeUsedMs: 159729,
+      systemCpuTimeUsedSec: 0,
