It sounds like you need a histogram: https://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/metric_types/#histogram https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/histograms/
What this means is you generate separate buckets for different latencies (maybe: <0.1s, <0.2s, <0.5s, <1s, <2s, other) and increment the counts for each message. Then answering questions like "out of all the events, what proportion took more than 1 second?" is straightforward. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
