It's the per-second data transfer, averaged over the last 5 minutes.
(It could be "the data transferred over the last 5 minutes divided by
300 seconds", but Cisco uses some kind of exponential decay algorithm
that is less CPU and storage (!) intensive than doing the math in the
straightforward way).

There is no such thing as "instant per second data transfer" (because
that will be "if a packet is transferred right now, the rate is linespeed,
if no packet is transferred, the rate is 0", so you have to average).
You can set the rate down to "average over 30 seconds", the command
is "load-interval 30" (in the interface configuration).
