> Unify stats naming scheme

> The stats that we expose do not *explicitly* distinguish between counters
> (monotonically increasing over time) and gauges (fluctuating over time). It
> is left to the users to interpret them based on the stat name itself, which
> is prone to errors/confusion.
> One option is to add a "total_" prefix (or "_total" suffix) to counters
> and/or "gauge_" prefix ("_gauge" suffix) to gauges. A tricky part here is
> that we already expose some cgroup stats with "total_" prefix but they
> fluctuate over time (i.e., gauges).
> It would be nice to come up with a unifying naming scheme for stats. Since
> name/schema changes have far reaching consequence it would be great to have a
> discussion around this.
