Make sense. It might be worth explore counting in batches... (ie, increase
a counter by "batch-size" for each batch). So we still get the correct value.
Of course the metric will not increase slowly over time but "jump" in larger
intervals. Not sure if this i acceptable behavior and/or what other metrics are
there that cannot be updated in a "batch" fashion... count might be a too
simple example.
