My use case relies on a quick (order seconds) throughput from acquisition to writing to the database. The merge aggregator has a default window of 30 seconds and writes the metrics after this window has closed. I wanted to modify these settings and found this without any defaults listed: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/config#aggregator-plugins. You actually need to look inside the code to find these:
The default values should be listed in the sample config of the merge aggregator plugin. Preferably with some description on what the Delay, Grace and Period settings actually do.
Actual behavior
The default 30 second merge window is sometimes too long and is not that straightforward to modify.
Additional info
Might apply to other aggregators as well?
