KEDA - New Relic integration

[CerqueiraYYZ]

Hey guys I integrated Keda on my cluster and now I like to use it with New Relic queries. I did this script

`apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: new-relic-secret
namespace: booking-dev2
type: Opaque
data:
apiKey: YOUR_API_KEY_ENCODED
account: YOUR_ACCOUNT_ENCODED
region: YOUR_REGION_ENCODED

apiVersion: keda.sh/v1alpha1
kind: TriggerAuthentication
metadata:
name: keda-trigger-auth-new-relic
namespace: booking-dev2
spec:
secretTargetRef:

• parameter: queryKey
  name: new-relic-secret
  key: apiKey
• parameter: account
  name: new-relic-secret
  key: account
• parameter: region
  name: new-relic-secret
  key: region

`

I saw really strange data from hpa for example.

keda-hpa-newrelic-scaledobject Deployment/booking-deployment 114351m/80 (avg), 64%/60% 1 40 2 27m

If I do the same query manually on New Relic I get 217.

I tried to understand it as a miliUnit doing 114351/1000 = 114.351 but the deviation is too big and the traffic is really stable.

Can you help me to understand a bit where this values are coming from. I dont see on the logs any errors.
