Description: counters and logarithmically bucketed histograms for distributed systems
A metric system for high performance counters and histograms. Unlike
popular metric systems today, this does not destroy the accuracy of
histograms by sampling. Instead, a logarithmic bucketing function
compresses values, generally within 1% of their true value (although
between 0 and 1 the precision loss may not be within this boundary). This
allows for extreme compression, which allows us to calculate arbitrarily
high percentiles with no loss of accuracy - just a small amount of
precision. This is particularly useful for highly-clustered events that
are tolerant of a small precision loss, but for which you REALLY care
about what the tail looks like, such as measuring latency across a
distributed system.
