Events per second without hitting limitations

I am looking to calculate per second transactions but when doing so through either stats or a timechart I am hitting the limits of these functions. This is in a dashboard with a time selector so it can be variable. Is there any way to protect against running over the limits in a search? I was using the per_second function in timechart. Has anyone found a better way to handle getting average, min/max at a per second interval?

 

 

timechart span=5m per_second(count) as TPS
