hi @razum90, thanks for reporting this! I'm able to repro this locally, it looks like the valueMax is the max since JVM start instead of the max for the given interval. We will investigate further, thanks.

Thanks @trask!

hi @razum90, this looks like a micrometer bug: micrometer-metrics/micrometer#3298

Application Insights Java also supports OpenTelemetry Metrics, which I confirmed doesn't have this issue:

    private static void micrometer() throws InterruptedException {
        Timer timer = Metrics.timer("test");
        timer.record(Duration.ofMillis(100));
        MINUTES.sleep(1);
        timer.record(Duration.ofMillis(10));
        MINUTES.sleep(1);
    }

    private static void opentelemetry() throws InterruptedException {
        LongHistogram timer = GlobalOpenTelemetry.getMeter("test").histogramBuilder("test").ofLongs().build();
        timer.record(100);
        MINUTES.sleep(1);
        timer.record(10);
        MINUTES.sleep(1);
    }

(unfortunately OpenTelemetry Metrics doesn't have a dedicated Timer yet)

Hi @trask, oh okay. Will have to follow up that issue then. Thanks for looking into it.

Hello will this issue ever be fixed? As I have this same issue in the following environment:

JDK 17
Spring Boot 3.0.5
Micrometer Core:
[INFO] +- io.micrometer:micrometer-core:jar:1.10.5:compile
[INFO] | +- io.micrometer:micrometer-commons:jar:1.10.5:compile
[INFO] | +- io.micrometer:micrometer-observation:jar:1.10.5:compile
[INFO] | +- org.hdrhistogram:HdrHistogram:jar:2.1.12:runtime
[INFO] | - org.latencyutils:LatencyUtils:jar:2.0.3:runtime

Please advise if there is a work around, as we rely heavily on these metric capabilities.

Efforts to squash most appreciated. Any additional information I can provide, please advise.

Sincerely,
Jeff Schenk

hi @razum90! we are planning to replace our existing Micrometer instrumentation with the more recent upstream OpenTelemetry Micrometer instrumentation, which re-implements the Micrometer API using the OpenTelemetry Metrics SDK implementation, and therefore should avoid the above Micrometer bug.

(another option is to use the OpenTelemetry Metrics API directly, depending on how integrated your Micrometer usage is)

@trask That is good information. In interim I created a simple TimerWrapper object. Will review the OpenTelemetry Metrics SDK implementation for moving forward.

Many thanks, Jeff
