Interview Prompt

Does pipeline throughput correlate with duration? For each pipeline, calculate the average duration and the average net row output (rows_out minus 10% of rows_in as overhead). Then compute the correlation between average duration and average net output across all pipelines, rounded to 2 decimals. Return a single correlation value.

Summary

Does throughput correlate with duration?
