Graphite offers plenty of functions which can give you rate given counter ( ie. derviative ) or total value using given rate ( integral, hitscount). From your experience what metric is more preferrable to store and what to calculate with function? Which consumes less resources? Which is more tolerant to gaps in data etc..
