Now because it's send interaval is so erratic, the update usually comes a few seconds after a full minute, and that offset varies a lot.

Also, I then put that data into VictoriaMetrics, timestamped with the time the MQTT message was received.
VictoriaMetrics then tries to guess the scrape interval... and because it's so erratic, it sees random holes in the metric every minute or two.

Combined, these two properties make rate() very noisy.
