/**
* SECTION:element-latencytracer
* @short_description: log processing latency stats
*
* A tracing module that determines src-to-sink latencies by injecting custom
* events at sources and process them at sinks.
*/
/* TODO(ensonic): if there are two sources feeding into a mixer/muxer and later
* we fan-out with tee and have two sinks, each sink would get all two events,
* the later event would overwrite the former. Unfortunately when the buffer
* arrives on the sink we don't know to which event it correlates. Better would
* be to use the buffer meta in 1.0 instead of the event. Or we track a min/max
* latency.
