Total simulation time in minutes for the three methods depending on the input perturbed parameter for the spherical benchmark.

	TMC	Fast TMC		EMC

Parameter	Total	Total	Inactive	Reduced ^(a)	Active
ρ_²³⁹Pu	88	17	19	2	11
$\bar{ν}$ $\overline{\nu}$	196	23	16	1	15
χ	174	18	18	2	9
Combined	223	22	20	2	8

^(a)This column correspond to the estimated time for the inactive cycles by reducing the number of particles per batch by two order of magnitude for each inactive cycle.
