This commit does not belong to any branch on this repository, and may belong to a fork outside of the repository.
https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/histograms/ has a full discussion, but the gist is that histograms can be aggregated across processes whereas summaries cannot. This makes histograms more useful in environments where there is more than one process handling web requests, which is perhaps the more common case.
