From 2aab70b8390348b2814b7b9c7645f81dcf98a53b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Federico Leva Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2024 11:28:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Clarify batch_send_deadline docs This is the time period covered by a batch of samples, when the number of waiting samples is lower than max_samples_per_send. It does not affect timeouts or retries.
