So how did we get to that specific point in the code? In NewRelic:: Agent::Instrumentation:: Queutime#parse queue time from, the object ‘matches' is derived from get_matches_from_header, which specifies QUEUE HEADER, in this case ‘ HTTP X QUEUE START' which was added by nginx upstream. That ‘matches' object is then passed to record_rollup_queue_stat with the variable ‘end_time', which will ultimately be Time.now. The record_rollup_queue_stat method calls record_rollup_stat_of_type …

…The Clymb is better runtime monitoring for our website and servers. We have NewRelic but I always want more. With this in mind, I decided to try out statsd to collect and aggregate metrics for visualization. By using statsd, you get two benefits: 1) metric aggregation so you don't have to pay for N machines reporting metrics to a pay service and 2) control over where your metrics go so you can route them to Graphite, Librato Metrics or any other standard metrics …

A couple of days ago I published an analysis on the usage data provided by NewRelic and GemStats.org which showed that real world usage does not seem to correlate with gem download counts provided by RubyGems.org (or watchers/forks on Github). This generated a fair bit of feedback from people who were skeptical of the results. This article briefly attempts to address some of the questions and concerns people are having with the analysis. I guess you could call it a FAQ, of sorts.

Oh my, there doesn't seem to be a correlation here. It seems that NewRelic's sample on gem usage has a very weak relationship with the number of watchers or forks a project has. That's unfortunate. Does GemStats.org…
