Best practice for tag calculating derivative (difference between values at 2 timestamps)

I would use my objectScript() expression function’s state dictionary to hold the last few samples of each tag in memory (with timestamps) and calculate from those. Best if delegated to a function in the global scripting project. If you are particular about accuracy at startup, you can populate empty state from the historian, then track tag change from there.
