Related to {"limit":{"track":x}} value unordered - negative deltas
This is still happening. Does anyone have an explanation?
And just to clarify, since I didn’t label the axes in the linked images, the linked images plot the rate-limit “track” value for each rate-limit message received (in order). The “track” value, as I understand it, is supposed to be the cumulative number of missed tweets from the time that the stream started. Image #0 shows an example of restarting the stream midway through. Image #1 zooms in on a segment of the figure, and is reproduced here:
Not only does the cumulative number of missed tweets seem to vary non-monotonically, it also appears as if there are two distinct signals in that plot, each with different variances. I think most people would expect to see staircase plots.
