Percentiles rounding error

See original GitHub issue
 Name                                                           # reqs    50%    66%    75%    80%    90%    95%    98%    99%   100%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 POST /projects/<>/devices                                          50    230    240    250    270    320    340    600    600    596

Note that all latencies are multiple of 10. And 99% is higher than 100%.
