Question #209895 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/209895
Status: Open => Answered
Daniel Schauenberg proposed the following answer:
Hi Joshua,
that sounds like you're not sending enough stats. StatsD averages the received
metrics over the flush interval (default 10 seconds) so when you're sending
less than 10 metrics during one flush period, you will end up with values below
1. For counters the absolut received value is also sent under the
`stats_counts.` namespace. Also note that `stats.` is added by StatsD itself,
so the example you posted would end up under
`stats.stats.business.users.sign_in`.
There's also a StatsD mailing list at [email protected] if you have more
questions about it. Or hop into #statsd on freenode.
Cheers,
Daniel
