Working at an airfield that has manual reversion and still trains for procedural approaches.

Average gap between successive arrivals under radar control - 2 minutes.

Average gap between successive arrivals under procedural control - 10 minutes
I fly to quite a few non-radar airfields around the world and that seems a long time? The next aircraft is 30-40 track miles away when the previous one touches down. Why such a big gap (genuine question)?
