As we discussed with @xujyan, this is intended to measure the queueing delay for allocation dispatches. I'm still not convinced that this is a helpful metric. As implemented, this appears to measure the time between allocation intervals. I guess you would start the timer in `HierarchicalAllocatorProcess::allocate` and stop it in `HierarchicalAllocatorProcess::_allocate`. - James ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
