Question #219935 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/219935

Description changed to:
So right now I wrote a python script that parses out my apache log for
time taken to respond for certain url's and then send it to carbon.


Since we have so many requests a sec, it is possible that we are getting the same url multiple times with the same exact timestamp but a different metric value.

When it is sent over to carbon with the same timestamp, what happens
does it overwrite the last one?  So say I have a metric sent 4 times
with same exact timestamp it uses the last one?

I set it in carbon to do 1 second, but is it possible I need to do it
maybe even smaller though I know it not possible.
