beorn7 31318b7523 Switch to base-2 buckets ... This seem what OTel is converging towards, see https://github.com/open-telemetry/oteps/pull/149 . I see pros and cons with base-10 vs base-2. They are discussed in detail in that OTel PR, and the gist of the discussion is pretty much in line with my design doc. Since the balance is easy to tip here, I think we should go with base-2 if OTel picks base-2. This also seems to be in agreement with several proprietary solution (see again the discussion on that OTel PR.) The idea to make the number of buckets per power of 2 (or formerly 10) a power of 2 itself was also sketched out in the design doc already. It guarantees mergeability of different resolutions. I was undecided between making it a recommendation or mandatory. Now I think it should be mandatory as it has the additional benefit of playing well with OTel's plans. This commit also addresses a number of outstanding TODOs. Signed-off-by: beorn7 <beorn@grafana.com>		2021-06-23 16:48:03 +02:00
