Snapshot: median time to save an edit
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

See parent task T202132: EPIC: Generate one-off metric snapshots for mobile editing documentation for more information on background and acceptance criteria.

What is the median amount of time it takes an editor to save an edit?

Expected snapshot output:

MetricDesktop sMobile s
Median time to savess
MetricDesktop visual editorDesktop wikitext editors
Median time to savess
MetricMobile visual editorMobile wikitext editors
Median time to savess

Given how hard the visual editor is to find on mobile, and given that it's not the default anywhere, there may not be enough data to generate a reliable metric for the last table.

@DLynch this is blocked by missing data, as described in the subtasks, but I've also noticed that the schema describes action.saveSuccess.timing as "time in milliseconds spent by the system processing save (sum of two parts: saveIntent to saveReady, and saveAttempt to saveSuccess)."

We don't have saveReady events, so I wonder what exactly we're logging from the saveSucess timing in visual editor (which is the only editor that currently implements it). Do you know?
