perf(p2p)!: Remove PeerSendBytesTotal metric (backport #3184)#3491
Conversation
Component of #2840. As we discussed in the issue, we want to deprecate the peer send bytes total metric because: - This is a costly metric (see pprof) - This increases the cardinality of labels in Prometheus, which can slow things down in Prometheus significantly. - Its not really useful at this level of abstraction. We don't have reported usecases of this being used yet. If we want to do it in the future, we should more likely architect it as updating a live go variable, and then sending to our metrics instance on a polling ticker (ala PeerSendQueue metric). The right levels that are interesting for outbound traffic could be the consensus gossip routines or blocksync. To see its costly, 21% of all CPU time for live osmosis nodes in the latest Osmosis patch release is in peer.Send. over half of that time is in these metrics:  Please advise for how we should go about deprecating / removing this metric? Feel free to close this PR / say you want to handle it separately. --- #### PR checklist - [X] Tests written/updated - N/A - [x] Changelog entry added in `.changelog` (we use [unclog](https://github.com/informalsystems/unclog) to manage our changelog) - [x] Updated relevant documentation (`docs/` or `spec/`) and code comments - I didn't find any relevant docs - [x] Title follows the [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) spec --------- Co-authored-by: Andy Nogueira <me@andynogueira.dev> Co-authored-by: Anton Kaliaev <anton.kalyaev@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit 80114b2)
