Cool! I think the first (the arithmetic counters) have been implemented by now, but the generic histogram counter is a nice, small, and self-contained project. I'm cc'ing this response to hpx-users@stellar.cct.lsu.edu and I'd suggest that all follow-on discussions are done over there.

Re: [hpx-users] GSOC Generic Histogram performance counter project
just as a "by the way" - some time back, someone proposed a boost histogram class, that I played with (no idea if it was accepted into boost), but I added it to the libfabric parcelport on my branch so that I could dump out histograms of the parcel sizes that were passing through the parcelport. Would be very nice to see something like this available off the shelf in hpx/perf counters JB -Original Message- From: hpx-users-boun...@stellar.cct.lsu.edu [mailto:hpx-users-boun...@stellar.cct.lsu.edu] On Behalf Of Hartmut Kaiser Sent: 04 February 2018 19:22 To: 'Tanmay Tirpankar' Cc: hpx-users@stellar.cct.lsu.edu Subject: Re: [hpx-users] GSOC Generic Histogram performance counter project Hey Tanmay, > I was going through your GSOC 2018 project ideas and I was thinking of > working on these 2 projects 1)Add More Arithmetic Performance Counters > > 2)Create Generic Histogram Performance Counter I don't have a lot of > experience in parallel computing but I would like to learn more about > it through this project.

We have used this for the (very specific) histogram counter used in the parcel coalescing module. The GSoC project could build on top of this particular counter, essentially generalizing it for the user's consumption.
