As also introduced for node_exporter <https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/pull/1148>, and asked for in process exporter <https://github.com/ncabatoff/process-exporter/issues/248>, I believe there's benefit for an option to disable all the collection of go runtime metrics (e.g. "go_gc_duration_second" and any other go_* metric) in the statsd exporter. Those metrics are included by default when using the default go prometheus client's default registrerer.
I made a PR <https://github.com/prometheus/statsd_exporter/pull/587> which introduces a flag called "collector.disable-go-runtime-metrics" that controls the collection of those metrics. Not adding the flag will keep collection as always been. Disclaimer The information contained in this communication from the sender is confidential.
