           Summary: replication lag may affect recurrent reports
           Product: Analytics
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All

If labsdb has replication lag (which I'm not 100% sure is possible), then
recurrent reports might not see all the data for a given day when they run. 
That means that data would go missing from any run, because reports use
database timestamps and recurrent report runs use actual time.  Example:

* day X starts
* edit 1
* edit 2
* replication lag means the rest of day X is not on labsdb yet
* edit 3
* day X ends
* recurrent report runs for day X, gets data from labsdb, and doesn't see edit
3.
...
* recurrent report runs for day X+1 and the timestamp range filter means it
doesn't see edit 3.

result: day X edit totals are off and never corrected.
