How to convert Unix format and compare it with _time for given values of `savedsearch_name` and have a clear visualization

I am trying to visualize the deviation between a correlation rule's scheduled time and the time it was run.
went through the index=_internal sourcetype=scheduler
and found the scheduled time in Unix timestamp format.

How can I convert Unix format and compare it with _time for given values of savedsearch_name and have a clear visualization (to present it for management)

index=_internal sourcetype=scheduler
| eval diff=_time - savedsearch_name
| table _time diff
