Steve,That is a big help. Is seems there is raw data missing (not present in the rtstat records) which is used to get the average figures? (there just isn't a record for each and every product, right?)
I'm wanting to get the latency numbers at the end of each hour from the rtstats file of just our NEXRAD2 feed. Do you know if someone has already developed a script to do this?

The data-product was created on host "rpga1-phmo.nexrad.noaa.gov <http://rpga1-phmo.nexrad.noaa.gov>" and was delivered to the host on which rtstats(1) ran by host " idd.unidata.ucar.edu <http://idd.unidata.ucar.edu>".

Is this latency in seconds? tenths of seconds? Seconds. > And seconds also for Average latency this hour? Seconds. Yup. > Now this "Peak latency@min/sec past hour" throws me for a loop. Is this latency "at" minutes "or" seconds? minutes "and" seconds? And this is a measurement of the peak for "the past hour"? So, if an rtstats entry has an Creation-time of 20130528161521 - that's a meager 15 minutes after the top of the hour - is this peak for the part of the current hour? In this case, the "peak" is for the past 15 minutes? Example: > > 20130528161521 20130528161521 ... latency: 0.648148 > average latency: 1.14 (this is or is not the average latency since 20130528160000 ?) > and Peak latency@min/sec past hour: 2@0318 could be read as? > maybe: "peak latency of 2 seconds over a period of 3 mins and 18 seconds?" > or > "peak latency is rate of 2 seconds latency averaging over 3 mins and 18 seconds period of time?" In your example, the peak latency is 2 seconds at 3 minutes, 18 seconds past the hour. > I need to explain this stuff to my boss who is very familiar with such as latency in microseconds for packets over ethernet.
