We have calculate gradient and second derivatives of memory consumption and
the load average of the instances. After instances get activated it start
to published the health stats. Based on the stats CEP calculates the
gradient and second derivative based on the stats received. CEP waits for
one minute time interval and calculates those values.

No. Autoscaler will wait for count down. After that it terminate the
instance.
