My current assignment has me on Solaris 8 but I suspect that with most UNIX variants by the time your system reaches run-level 3, the /usr file system has been mounted which is where /usr/bin/ksh would be located. With Solaris, there is actually a /bin/sh on the / file system which is used until overlayed by the aforementioned mount.
So, up to that point in the boot process, it is a question of function. Afterwards, it is a question of preference and style using any available shell.

times(1) User Commands times(1)
NAME
times - shell built-in function to report time usages of the current shell
SYNOPSIS
sh
times
ksh
times
DESCRIPTION
sh
Print the accumulated user and system times for processes run from the shell.
ksh
Print the accumulated user and system times for the shell and for processes run from the shell.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not
performed.
