HdrHistogram.jl: Julia port of High Dynamic Range (HDR) Histogram

HdrHistogram

This port contains a subset of the functionality supported by the Java implementation. The current supported features are:

• Standard histogram with parametric count size (64 bit counts default)
• Atomic histograms
• All iterator types (all values, recorded, percentiles, linear, logarithmic)
• Auto-resizing of histograms
• Reader/writer phaser and interval recorder

Features not supported, but planned:

• Histogram serialisation (encoding version 1.2, decoding 1.0-1.2)

Features unlikely to be implemented:

• Double histograms
• Concurrent histograms

Simple Tutorial

Recording values

using HdrHistogram

# Initialize the histogram
histogram = HdrHistogram.Histogram(
    1,          # Minimum value
    3600000000, # Maximum value
    3           # Number of significant figures
)

# Record value
HdrHistogram.record_value!(
    histogram,      # Histogram to record to
    12345)          # Value to record

# Record value n times
HdrHistogram.record_value!(
    histogram,      # Histogram to record to
    12345,          # Value to record
    10)             # Record value 10 times

# Record value with correction for co-ordinated omission.
HdrHistogram.record_corrected_value!(
    histogram,      # Histogram to record to
    12345,          # Value to record
    1000)           # Record with expected interval of 1000.

# Print out the values of the histogram
HdrHistogram.percentiles_print(
    stdout,         # IO to write to
    histogram,      # Histogram to print
    5,              # Granularity of printed values
    1.0)            # Multiplier for results

# Initialize interval recorder. Multiple tasks can write to a recorder at the same time
recorder = HdrHistogram.IntervalRecorder(
    HdrHistogram.Histogram(
        1,          # Minimum value
        3600000000, # Maximum value
        3           # Number of significant figures
    ))

# Record value
HdrHistogram.record_value!(
    recorder,       # Recorder to record to
    12345)          # Value to record

# Record value n times
HdrHistogram.record_value!(
    recorder,       # Recorder to record to
    12345,          # Value to record
    10)             # Record value 10 times

# Record value with correction for co-ordinated omission.
HdrHistogram.record_corrected_value!(
    recorder,       # Recorder to record to
    12345,          # Value to record
    1000)           # Record with expected interval of 1000.

# Read an interval histogram from the recorder and allocate a new one for recording
interval = HdrHistogram.interval_histogram(
    recorder)       # Recorder to read from

# Read an interval histogram from the recorder and recycle an old histogram for recording 
new_interval = HdrHistogram.interval_histogram(
    recorder,       # Recorder to read from 
    interval)       # Histogram to recycle
