By default, statsd timers are represented as a Prometheus summary with

quantiles. You may optionally configure the [quantiles and acceptable

The default quantiles are 0.99, 0.9, and 0.5.

In the configuration, one may also set the timer type to "histogram". The

default is "summary" as in the plain text configuration format. For example,
