Hi!
I've noticed that sometimes data of the same type instance could be
collected twice in a short time span. For instance, my program could
receive the following binary data from collectd:
[(8, 1561609235.63349), (2, 'cpu'), (3, '0'), (4, 'cpu'),
(5, 'system'), (6, [(2, 297502)]), /* FIRST COLLECT */
(8, 1561609235.6335657), (5, 'softirq'), (6, [(2, 122952)]), (8,
1561609235.6335669), (5, 'steal'), (6, [(2, 0)]), (8,
1561609235.6335678), (5, 'idle'), (6, [(2, 1921056)]), (8,
1561609235.6345353), (5, 'user'), (6, [(2, 254032)]),
(8, 1561609235.6345372), (5, 'system'), /* SECOND COLLECT */
(6, [(2, 297510)]), (8, 1561609235.634538), (5, 'wait'), (6, [(2,
21160)]), (8, 1561609235.634539), (5, 'nice'), (6, [(2, 342)]), (8,
1561609235.63454), (5, 'interrupt'), (6, [(2, 0)]), ...
As you could see, 'system' was collected twice at 1561609235.63349 and
1561609235.6345372.
This doesn't happen often. Maybe once every few hours.
This seems not a big deal, but it is causing some confusion in my
parsing program.
Is this normal? Should my parser expect to deal this? Or is there
something wrong with my set up?
Thanks for your help!
