Hello

I'm using telgraf to grab windows metrics to send to Influx and notice a 
strange issues with some of the counters. I've setup a new inputs stanza for 
collecting w3svc_w3wp requests/sec.

  [[inputs.win_perf_counters.object]]
    # Example query where the Instance portion must be removed to get data 
back, such as from the Memory object.
    ObjectName = "W3SVC_W3WP"
    Counters = ["Requests / sec"]
    Instances = ["*"] # Use 6 x - to remove the Instance bit from the query.
    Measurement = "win_w3svc"
    IncludeTotal=false #Set to true to include _Total instance when querying 
for all (*).

everything seemed to be working properly, metrics are being sent to Influx but 
there are a number of gaps. Collect interval is set to 5s and flush_interval is 
set to 10s. 

In perfmon I see a steady graph of reques/st but in influx there are several 
gaps of 0s. Querying Influx shows 

time    Requests_/_sec  host    instance        objectname
2017-02-23T14:00:32Z    0       "host"  "appPool"       "W3SVC_W3WP"
2017-02-23T14:00:37Z    0       "host"  "appPool"       "W3SVC_W3WP"
2017-02-23T14:00:42Z    0       "host"  "appPool"       "W3SVC_W3WP"
2017-02-23T14:00:47Z    0       "host"  "appPool"       "W3SVC_W3WP"
2017-02-23T14:00:52Z    99.3712158203125        "hosts" "appPool"       
"W3SVC_W3WP"

I would expect to see a constant stream of data

Am I missing something?
Does the collect interval impact how metrics are collected? Should this be a 
lower number if I want to get more detail?
