When I run following query: .... | bin _time span=5m | timechart avg(responseTime) (responseTime is an extracted field) What I understand of this query is this: Divide timeline in a series of buckets of 5 minutes duration each, find average of responseTime for each such bucket and plot the graph(average of responsetime as Y axis, for timechart X axis is always time). I see graph as: So I see graph is not continuous, as there may be time slots when there is no record and hence no data point. Now, if I change my query to: .... | bin _time span=5m | chart avg(responseTime) by _time My understanding is that this query should behave same as first one. But graph I see is as: In contrast to first graph, this one is continuous without any break. I am not able to understand why the two queries behave differently.
