Rename gc_total_time to gc_time #874
Conversation
Update naming to only be about the time measured. It no longer reports the total time, but reports the delta of two measurements. Part of #868
✔️ All good! |
I forgot to add it to the original commit. Let's squash merge the PR this is a part of. [skip ci]

Rename the (so far privately reported) `gc_total_time` metric to `gc_time`. It no longer reports the total time of Garbage Collection measured, but only the time between two (minutely) measurements. |

I mean we don't show it anywhere. We added it for the Ruby VM dashboard but then took the graph display it out at the last minute. People could make a graph themselves, but they'd have to find it in the reported metrics list and then they probably don't know what the values mean. So privately because it wasn't shown anywhere and it's not documented anywhere.
Add the Garbage Collection time graph back to the Ruby VM dashboard after it was added and removed in PR #38. I've updated the metric name to `gc_time` in Ruby gem PR: appsignal/appsignal-ruby#874 This graph will not have any data by default. We need a way to redirect users to our docs on how to enable this. We also need to write docs for this, basically saying: Add `GC::Profiler.enable` to your app, but not in production or not for long in production because it may adversely impact the performance of your app. Also, to update existing dashboards, I refer to the dashboard update issue we should pick up: appsignal/appsignal-server#4770 Part of appsignal/appsignal-ruby#868
