Hi David

As I understand this is only an issue if your keeping multiple
retentions for example,

retentions = 1m:1d,5m:28d,15m:1y

if you were just keeping the single retention it would be fine.

retentions = 1m:1d

However, if someone is happy to share a better solution I'm all ears!

Regards,
Quenten

Quenten,

FYI, by including a time-conversion factor in your scale() function, you have likely broken data aggregation; see...
