How to timechart multiple functions in one search?

Hi,

i want to do a timechart with multiple functions, for example - timechart span=1h max(blabla) by boo1 avg(blabla) by boo1

this is my search:

index=myind source=mysrc | timechart span=1h avg(CPU_USAGE) by Process_Name

CPU_USAGE and Process_Name are made up, just so i can show the split-by clause.

what i would like to do is something like this:
index=myind source=mysrc | timechart span=1h avg(CPU_USAGE) by Process_Name, max(CPU_USAGE) by Process_Name

so the idea is to show on the same panel both the average & the maximum of the CPU_USAGE for each process name.
because there can only be one split-by clause, the above search won't help.

i tried using this:
index=myind source=mysrc | timechart span=1h avg(CPU_USAGE) by Process_Name | appendcols [search index=myind source=mysrc | timechart span=1h max(CPU_USAGE) by Process_Name]

but that's a heavy search that is not really good, i am doing twice the search for the same data 😞

help!
