Actually for me the main "con" with streaming analyze is that it adds
significant CPU burden to already not too fast load process. Especially
if it's automatically done for any load operation performed (and I can't
see how it can be enabled on some threshold).
And you can't start after some threshold of data passed by since you may
loose significant information (like minimal values).
