  // A metric is a statistic about a monitorable entity.

  // Metrics are named with path-like strings, which must conform to the regular
  // expression (/[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)+.  For example:
  //
  //     /proc/cpu_usage
  //     /rpc/client/count
  //
  // Metrics may optionally have labels, which are additional dimensions used to
  // identify the metric's values.  For example, the metric /rpc/client/count
  // might have two labels named "rpc_service" and "rpc_method".
  //
  // A label name must be an identifier, which conform to the regular expression
  // [a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*, and is only unique within the context of the metric
  // it is a label for.
  //
  // MetricDescriptor defines the structure of the metric (e.g. the fact that it's
  // a counter and that it has two labels named "rpc_service" and "rpc_method").
  // Individual points will provide a value for the metric (e.g. the counter
  // value) and specific values for each of the labels.
  //
  // There's no scoping relationship between metrics and monitorable entities: the
  // metric /rpc/client/count should be defined the same way no matter which
  // monitorable entity is exporting it.

    // A cumulative metric like /rpc/client/count typically has runs of
    // consecutive points that share a common start_timestamp, which is often
    // the time at which the exporting process started.  For example:
    //
    //   value:  3  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1234
    //   value:  7  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1245
    //   value: 10  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1256
    //   value: 15  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1267
    //   value: 21  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1278
    //   value:  4  start_timestamp: 1300  end_timestamp: 1400
    //
    // The meaning of each point is: "Over the time period from
    // 'start_timestamp' to 'end_timestamp', 'value' client RPCs finished."
    //
    // Note the changed start_timestamp and the decrease in 'value' in the
    // last line; those are the effects of the process restarting.
    //
    // Delta metrics have the same interpretation of the timestamps and values,
    // but the time ranges of two points do not overlap.  The delta form of the
    // above sequence would be:
    //
    //   value:  3  start_timestamp: 1000  end_timestamp: 1234
    //   value:  4  start_timestamp: 1235  end_timestamp: 1245
    //   value:  3  start_timestamp: 1246  end_timestamp: 1256
    //   value:  5  start_timestamp: 1257  end_timestamp: 1267
    //   value:  6  start_timestamp: 1268  end_timestamp: 1278
    //   value:  4  start_timestamp: 1300  end_timestamp: 1400
    //
    // For gauge metrics whose values are instantaneous measurements,
    // start_timestamp and end_timestamp may be identical.  I.e., there is no need
    // to strictly measure the time period during which the value measurement was
    // made.
