Where can I find sth. about this?

In fact, this bug is encountered when I am trying to implement a
statistic daemon in user space. It fetches the classes's statistics
data periodicity, then calculates the rate based on the data fetched.
In some cases, it reports the leaf classes's rate is over theirs
limit, but its ascent's isn't.

I think there must be someone does the same thing as me. So the
feature is important for them too. If we don't fix it, how can I
archive my requirement? Any comment?
