Here's an example of what I mean by those metrics being inversely
proportional. Each of these tasks are doing the identical work and ran
two minutes apart.

08-12 01:42PM 11.860 /crawl/prefetch/03 200 6227ms 108803cpu_ms
107111api_cpu_ms
08-12 01:39PM 47.970 /crawl/prefetch/03 200 23846ms 25655cpu_ms 23770
api_cpu_ms

The following are my measurements using the quota package and they
represent the end-to-end quota times inside my handler for these
respective calls...

08-12 01:42PM 18.056 total CPU cycles 5584, total API cycles 128534
08-12 01:40PM 11.517 total CPU cycles 4132, total API cycles 28524

>From an analysis perspective, I have two challenges:

1. I cannot reconcile the wall clock time for these slow requests
2. I cannot trust the metrics from the quota package since I can't see
clarity about what they actually represent
