Hi,

I have been collecting time series data using collectd and the data type, counter. It is sent data to Graphite for graphing. In Graphite, the data is being plotted as cumulative. For example if the data every second is:

foo.bar.baz 1 74857843
foo.bar.baz 0 74857844
foo.bar.baz 2 74857845

At epoch time "74857845", the value 3 gets plotted vs 2. Is there something in Graphite/Carbon/Whisper configuration causing this? I wrote the data out via csv in collectd and the values look correct.

Thanks,

Jimmy
