We look at histograms instead of any single slice of the pie to get a good composite picture of what the current state of affairs is. And for specific goals and budgets, we turn to the 90th or 95th percentile.

Usually when this happens with ccache, there’s something non-deterministic about the builds that prevents cache hits.
