Review Comment:
   `prefix` isn't `volatile` and is set from within the `synchronized` 
`init(String)` method. This would mean that we may be initialized and not yet 
be able to observe it from this separate thread.
   
   That said, I don't know how likely this race condition would be to hit.
   
   We could also check the `monitoring` boolean instead of `prefix`. This would 
mean that we already have atomic access to that variable. I am assuming that 
the synchronization on the methods in MetricsSystemImpl would not affect this 
reflection, meaning we would still have a (small) window where `stop()` is 
being called but not yet complete.
   
   Maybe you have already thought about this :)
