Constructor Details

#initialize(sample_rate = 1.0) ⇒ RateSampler

Initialize a RateSampler. This sampler keeps a random subset of the traces. Its main purpose is to reduce the instrumentation footprint.

  • sample_rate: the sample rate as a Float between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0 means that no trace will be sampled; 1.0 means that all traces will be sampled.
