The runtime logic determines a processing latency for each of the stages by calculating time elapsed between producers of a particular stage receiving input data and consumers of the particular stage receiving output data. The instrumentation profiling logic generates performance statistics for the dataflow graph based on the processing latency determined for each of the stages.
