Question #70553 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/70553

    Status: Open => Answered

chrismd proposed the following answer:
So averageSeries() only applies to groups of series (you have to select
multiple targets first), for each point in time it computes a value that
is the average of all the values of the series you gave it at that point
in time.

What you want sounds like "target=movingAverage(derivative(a.b.c), 10)".
Or if you use the web UI, simply first apply the derivative function
then apply movingAverage and when it asks for a window size enter 10
(assuming your data is minutely, if it is not then enter a number of
data points you want to have in the moving average window).

As for the suggestion to translate the time scale by an offset, this has
been on my TODO list for longer than I care to remember. I have been
very busy and not really done much on graphite in the past few months
(work, school, family, etc...). But my semester ended today and I am not
taking summer classes so I'm hoping to get another graphite release or 2
done this summer including stuff like this.
