Class Frequency

java.lang.Object
net.i2p.stat.Frequency

public class Frequency extends Object
Manage the calculation of a moving average event frequency over a certain period. This provides lifetime, and rolling average, frequency counts. Unlike Rate, it does not support "bucketed" averages. There is no tracking of the event frequency in the current or last bucket. There are no buckets at all. Depending on what you want, a rolling average might be better than buckets. Or not.
  • Constructor Details

    • Frequency

      public Frequency(long period)
      Parameters:
      period - ms
  • Method Details

    • getPeriod

      public long getPeriod()
      how long is this frequency averaged over? (ms)
    • getLastEvent

      @Deprecated public long getLastEvent()
      Deprecated.
      unused
      when did the last event occur?
    • getAverageInterval

      public double getAverageInterval()
      on average over the last $period, after how many milliseconds are events coming in, as calculated during the last event occurrence?
      Returns:
      milliseconds; returns period + 1 if no events in previous period
    • getMinAverageInterval

      @Deprecated public double getMinAverageInterval()
      Deprecated.
      unused
      what is the lowest average interval (aka most frequent) we have seen? (ms)
      Returns:
      milliseconds; returns period + 1 if no events in previous period
    • getAverageEventsPerPeriod

      public double getAverageEventsPerPeriod()
      Calculate how many events would occur in a period given the current (rolling) average. Use getStrictAverageInterval() for the real lifetime average.
    • getMaxAverageEventsPerPeriod

      public double getMaxAverageEventsPerPeriod()
      Calculate how many events would occur in a period given the maximum rolling average. Use getStrictAverageEventsPerPeriod() for the real lifetime average.
    • getStrictAverageInterval

      public double getStrictAverageInterval()
      Over the lifetime of this stat, without any decay or weighting, what was the average interval between events? (ms)
      Returns:
      milliseconds; returns Double.MAX_VALUE if no events ever
    • getStrictAverageEventsPerPeriod

      public double getStrictAverageEventsPerPeriod()
      using the strict average interval, how many events occur within an average period?
    • getEventCount

      public long getEventCount()
      how many events have occurred within the lifetime of this stat?
    • eventOccurred

      public void eventOccurred()
      Take note that a new event occurred, recalculating all the averages and frequencies
    • recalculate

      public void recalculate()
      Recalculate the averages
    • store

      void store(StringBuilder dest)
      Appends the data of this frequency to the specified StringBuilder
      Parameters:
      dest - to append data to
      Since:
      0.9.23
