I’m considering implementing a normal distribution because of reverse exponential not being realistic except for use cases like users spamming a button.
Was the normal distribution considered for inclusion?
The sealed abstract class PauseType does not seem to leave any room to custom distribution implementations.

There was some discussions some time ago and we didn't reach a consensus.
What are your arguments? Do you have some literature to share?
Ask @nremond.

Thanks for your answers Stephane.
I'll try to elaborate here when I get a chance to actually play with a
different distribution.

Do you mean the case class Custom (
)?
I tried extending it and overriding def generator, without much luck. I'll
try harder next week.
Hello,
Indeed, extending Custom is ok as a workaround.
object GaussianPause extends Custom(null) {
override def generator(duration: Expression[Duration]) = duration.map(duration => …)
}
I’ll play a bit with it and hopefully come back with some results.
Should be fairly straightforward. Just pass the standard deviation to the new PauseType and use Random.nextGaussian.
@sebdotv How are you going with that? Do you think you’ll make it on time for 2.1 (release planned for next Monday).
Hey, nope I will need couple more weeks to get results on that point.
