In terms of samples fetched from the DB which is a cost limiting factor in our set up, what is the overhead of rate() compared to increase(). Based on my reading so far, rate() requires all data points within the time range interval thus it will fetch all data points from storage. On the other hand, the increase() function would fetch the first and last data point + penultimate data points for interpolation/extrapolation. Is it correct to state that increase() has lower overhead than rate() in terms of samples fetched with the overhead scaling up with time range interval?
