They all do, but probably in a different way than you would like to. When updating, all that's done is computing a rate. MIN/MAX/AVG is done only when the rate goes into a CDP. This is too late for what you want. The solution: a single step is 1 second. Your finest RRA is 300 steps (or whichever number you choose) of one second instead of having 1 step of 300 seconds.
