Question: Why are values on the Peaks line on the History page sometimes smaller than the values shown on the Top Sample line?
Answer:
In the following image the Totals for Cache Panics is 2 but the corresponding Peaks value is empty.
The reason is that the Totals value is a cumulative server property whereas the Peaks value is computed by Foxhound,
and in this case sampling was started after the two cache panics had occurred.
Another explanation could have been that the Reset Peaks button had been pressed after the two cache panics had occurred.
