Ok, so here's my understanding. I hope it would benefit others as well:

As I'm using StatsD to aggregate counts, I need to make sure that its
flushInterval >= highest-resolution retention that I've defined, so it
never flushes twice in the same bucket.

With multiple client machines, each having their own local StatsD, I
should prefix metrics by hostname (so two StatsD instances don't end up
reporting in same bucket), and may use carbon-aggregator for efficient
retrieval of 'all hosts' metrics.
