+Package metrics provides a stable interface to access implementation-defined
+metrics exported by the Go runtime. This package is similar to existing functions
+like runtime.ReadMemStats and debug.ReadGCStats, but significantly more general.
+
+The set of metrics defined by this package may evolve as the runtime itself
+evolves, and also enables variation across Go implementations, whose relevant
+metric sets may not intersect.
+
+# Interface
+
+Metrics are designated by a string key, rather than, for example, a field name in
+a struct. The full list of supported metrics is always available in the slice of
+Descriptions returned by All. Each Description also includes useful information
+about the metric.
+
+Thus, users of this API are encouraged to sample supported metrics defined by the
+slice returned by All to remain compatible across Go versions. Of course, situations
+arise where reading specific metrics is critical. For these cases, users are
+encouraged to use build tags, and although metrics may be deprecated and removed,
+users should consider this to be an exceptional and rare event, coinciding with a
+very large change in a particular Go implementation.
+
+Each metric key also has a "kind" that describes the format of the metric's value.
+In the interest of not breaking users of this package, the "kind" for a given metric
+is guaranteed not to change. If it must change, then a new metric will be introduced
+with a new key and a new "kind."
+
+# Metric key format
+
+As mentioned earlier, metric keys are strings. Their format is simple and well-defined,
+designed to be both human and machine readable. It is split into two components,
+separated by a colon: a rooted path and a unit. The choice to include the unit in
+the key is motivated by compatibility: if a metric's unit changes, its semantics likely
+did also, and a new key should be introduced.
+
+For more details on the precise definition of the metric key's path and unit formats, see
+the documentation of the Name field of the Description struct.
+
+# A note about floats
+
+This package supports metrics whose values have a floating-point representation. In
+order to improve ease-of-use, this package promises to never produce the following
+classes of floating-point values: NaN, infinity.
+
+# Supported metrics
+
+Below is the full list of supported metrics, ordered lexicographically.
+
+	/cgo/go-to-c-calls:calls
+		Count of calls made from Go to C by the current process.
+
+	/gc/cycles/automatic:gc-cycles
+		Count of completed GC cycles generated by the Go runtime.
+
+	/gc/cycles/forced:gc-cycles
+		Count of completed GC cycles forced by the application.
+
+	/gc/cycles/total:gc-cycles
+		Count of all completed GC cycles.
+
+	/gc/heap/allocs-by-size:bytes
+		Distribution of heap allocations by approximate size.
+		Note that this does not include tiny objects as defined by /gc/heap/tiny/allocs:objects,
+		only tiny blocks.
+
+	/gc/heap/allocs:bytes
+		Cumulative sum of memory allocated to the heap by the application.
+
+	/gc/heap/allocs:objects
+		Cumulative count of heap allocations triggered by the application.
+		Note that this does not include tiny objects as defined by /gc/heap/tiny/allocs:objects,
+		only tiny blocks.
+
+	/gc/heap/frees-by-size:bytes
+		Distribution of freed heap allocations by approximate size.
+		Note that this does not include tiny objects as defined by /gc/heap/tiny/allocs:objects,
+		only tiny blocks.
+
+	/gc/heap/frees:bytes
+		Cumulative sum of heap memory freed by the garbage collector.
+
+	/gc/heap/frees:objects
+		Cumulative count of heap allocations whose storage was freed by the garbage collector.
+		Note that this does not include tiny objects as defined by /gc/heap/tiny/allocs:objects,
+		only tiny blocks.
+
+	/gc/heap/goal:bytes
+		Heap size target for the end of the GC cycle.
+
+	/gc/heap/objects:objects
+		Number of objects, live or unswept, occupying heap memory.
+
+	/gc/heap/tiny/allocs:objects
+		Count of small allocations that are packed together into blocks.
+		These allocations are counted separately from other allocations
+		because each individual allocation is not tracked by the runtime,
+		only their block. Each block is already accounted for in
+		allocs-by-size and frees-by-size.
+
+	/gc/limiter/last-enabled:gc-cycle
+		GC cycle the last time the GC CPU limiter was enabled.
+		This metric is useful for diagnosing the root cause of an out-of-memory
+		error, because the limiter trades memory for CPU time when the GC's CPU
+		time gets too high. This is most likely to occur with use of SetMemoryLimit.
+		The first GC cycle is cycle 1, so a value of 0 indicates that it was never enabled.
+
+	/gc/pauses:seconds
+		Distribution individual GC-related stop-the-world pause latencies.
+
+	/gc/stack/starting-size:bytes
+		The stack size of new goroutines.
+
+	/memory/classes/heap/free:bytes
+		Memory that is completely free and eligible to be returned to
+		the underlying system, but has not been. This metric is the
+		runtime's estimate of free address space that is backed by
+		physical memory.
+
+	/memory/classes/heap/objects:bytes
+		Memory occupied by live objects and dead objects that have
+		not yet been marked free by the garbage collector.
+
+	/memory/classes/heap/released:bytes
+		Memory that is completely free and has been returned to
+		the underlying system. This metric is the runtime's estimate of
+		free address space that is still mapped into the process, but
+		is not backed by physical memory.
+
+	/memory/classes/heap/stacks:bytes
+		Memory allocated from the heap that is reserved for stack
+		space, whether or not it is currently in-use.
+
+	/memory/classes/heap/unused:bytes
+		Memory that is reserved for heap objects but is not currently
+		used to hold heap objects.
+
+	/memory/classes/metadata/mcache/free:bytes
+		Memory that is reserved for runtime mcache structures, but
+		not in-use.
+
+	/memory/classes/metadata/mcache/inuse:bytes
+		Memory that is occupied by runtime mcache structures that
+		are currently being used.
+
+	/memory/classes/metadata/mspan/free:bytes
+		Memory that is reserved for runtime mspan structures, but
+		not in-use.
+
+	/memory/classes/metadata/mspan/inuse:bytes
+		Memory that is occupied by runtime mspan structures that are
+		currently being used.
+
+	/memory/classes/metadata/other:bytes
+		Memory that is reserved for or used to hold runtime
+		metadata.
+
+	/memory/classes/os-stacks:bytes
+		Stack memory allocated by the underlying operating system.
+
+	/memory/classes/other:bytes
+		Memory used by execution trace buffers, structures for
+		debugging the runtime, finalizer and profiler specials, and
+		more.
+
+	/memory/classes/profiling/buckets:bytes
+		Memory that is used by the stack trace hash map used for
+		profiling.
+
+	/memory/classes/total:bytes
+		All memory mapped by the Go runtime into the current process
+		as read-write. Note that this does not include memory mapped
+		by code called via cgo or via the syscall package.
+		Sum of all metrics in /memory/classes.
+
+	/sched/gomaxprocs:threads
+		The current runtime.GOMAXPROCS setting, or the number of
+		operating system threads that can execute user-level Go code
+		simultaneously.
+
+	/sched/goroutines:goroutines
+		Count of live goroutines.
+
+	/sched/latencies:seconds
+		Distribution of the time goroutines have spent in the scheduler
+		in a runnable state before actually running.
