Performance profile

How much work a call to wpmu_welcome_notification() does, and what it touches: the algorithmic scaling, the Zend instruction count per call across PHP versions, the hooks it hands control to, and the core code that calls it. Measured from the compiled opcodes, not a stopwatch, so every number is identical on any machine running the same PHP version, and every function in core is ranked by cost.

Cost class
Expensive

Sends mail via wp_mail().

Scaling
Constant

No loop in the body: the same number of instructions runs whatever you pass in.

Instructions
18–142

Executed per call on PHP 8.5, depending on the branch taken. The body compiles to 144.

Plugin surface
3 hooks

Third-party callbacks on 'wpmu_welcome_notification', 'update_welcome_email', 'update_welcome_subject' run inside this call, and their cost is not bounded by anything here.

One number would be a lie: the work depends on which branch runs. These are every distinct cost wpmu_welcome_notification() can have, taken from its control-flow graph on PHP 8.5.
