When a 50th %-tile queue exceeds capacity (with the "~"), it is theoretically infinite.

But how about a 95th %tile queue exceeds capacity (with the "#"), does it also mean it is theoretically infinite?

Hi Eric,

The # indicates that this is the queue after 2 cycles of 95th percentile volume. That is, what is left over from cycle 1 and then another 95th that arrives on top of this. In theory, 95th percentile volume could not occur over and over. If you do not see a ~, I would say the 95th with the # is a reasonable estimate (there would be some cycles that are not over capacity). It is when you see the ~ that you have the big problems.

Thanks,

John.
