Metrics collected differ from get-counter #51

I have an issue where the metrics that are collected for CPU processor time differing from running get-counter cmdlet. I can have the Start-StatsToGraphite running in a console side-by-side to another PS console running get-counter cmdlet, both polling \Processor(*)\% Processor Time, at 5 second intervals, and the metrics vary greatly. On the side with the cmdlet running I will have cookedvalues of 6 to 17, however on the side running the Start-StatsToGraphite the verbose output says 0 to 1.5.
