**Kibana version** : 6.8.10

**Elasticsearch version** : 6.8.10

**APM Server version** : 6.8.10

**APM Agent language and version** : python (flask), 5.6.0

**Browser version** : google chrome 83.0.4103.97 (Official Build) (64-bit)

**Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, deb, from source, etc.) and version**: apt or apt-get  
version : apt 1.6.12ubuntu0.1 (amd64)

**Fresh install or upgraded from other version?**  
No

**Is there anything special in your setup?** For example, are you using the Logstash or Kafka outputs? Are you using a load balancer in front of the APM Servers? Have you changed index pattern, generated custom templates, changed agent configuration etc.  
No

**Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior. Please include screenshots (if relevant)**:

After I had called my /test api just one time, I looked into transaction tab in ATM.

- When I set time range to 15 min, it shows 6 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 10 sec)
- When I set time range to 30 min, it shows 2 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 30 sec)
- When I set time range to 1 hour, it shows 2 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 30 sec)
- When I set time range to 4 hour, it shows 1 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 1 min)  
...

According to the concept of rpm, my expected correct values are

- When I set time range to 15 min, it shows 1 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 10 sec)
- When I set time range to 30 min, it shows 1 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 30 sec)
- When I set time range to 1 hour, it shows 1 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 30 sec)
- When I set time range to 4 hour, it shows 1 rpm (at that time, x-axis time unit is 1 min)  
...

Is it normal behavior? or bug?

Thank you in advance~!
