In that spirit:

What I almost always want to do is simply "for the last N days of
variable X show me a CDF (at even just 10 percentile granularity) for
the histogram and let me break that down by sets of build id and or
OS." That's it.

For instance - what is my median time to ready for HTTP vs HTTPs
connections (I've got data for both of those)? What about their tails?
How did they change based on some checkin I'm interested in? Not
rocket science - but incredibly painful to even approximate in the
current front end.. you can kind of do it, but with a bunch of fudging
and manual addition required and it takes forever. I'll admit I get
frustrated with all the talk of EC and Hadoop and what-not when it
really seems a rather straightforward task for me to script on the
data.

Gimme the data set and I can just script it instead of spending an
hour laboriously clicking on things and waiting 15 seconds for every
click.

Reports from the front end seem to indicate that there are 60 Million
submissions in the last month across all channels for one of the
things I'm tracking.. 651K of those from nightly. fwiw.
