 Just use [GetOrCreateCounter](http://godoc.org/github.com/VictoriaMetrics/metrics#GetOrCreateCounter)

+#### Why [Histogram](http://godoc.org/github.com/VictoriaMetrics/metrics#Histogram) buckets contain `vmrange` labels instead of `le` labels like in Prometheus histograms?
+
+Buckets with `vmrange` labels occupy less disk space comparing to Promethes-style buckets with `le` labels,
+because `vmrange` buckets don't include counters for the previous ranges. [VictoriaMetrics](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics) provides `prometheus_buckets`
+function, which converts `vmrange` buckets to Prometheus-style buckets with `le` labels. This is useful for building heatmaps in Grafana.
+Additionally, its' `histogram_quantile` function transparently handles histogram buckets with `vmrange` labels.
