> How we calculate gradient of two events?
> Say the events are; e1(t1,v1) and e2(t2,v2)
> tx - time in milliseconds when xth event occurred
> vx - value (memory, cpu etc.) that xth event carries
> time gap = t(2-1) = t2 -t1 milliseconds
> time gap in seconds = t(2-1) = (t2 - t1)/1000 seconds
> Hence,
> Gradient = (v2 - v1) / t(2-1) = ( (v2 - v1) * 1000 ) / (t2 - t1)

> ===================================================================
> So, as you can see the reason behind a large value is when the time gap
> between two subjected events is less than 1 second. This could happen since
> events are coming from different asynchronous agents and also when there are
> less number of events.
> FIX
> ====
> So, the fix I propose is a very simple one and it will not compromise
> anything AFAIS.
> Fix is to calculate time gap as follows;
>
>
> time gap = t(2-1) } t2 -t1 > 1000 -----> t2 - t1
> t2 - t1 <= 1000 ----> 1000
> I have tested this and works fine.
