I am not convinced that "bash" is the right language to do such
calculations in.

cpuacct.usage is the right place to look for systemd's own cgroups. No
idea how docker uses cgroups though. 

I don't see why you'd ever use /proc/stat. Just use the top-level
cpuacct.usage file in the cgroup tree, it should cover the whole tree,
and hence the entire system.

No idea how you would query the CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock for the time
passed though from bash.
