== Metrics

=== Processing time

The processing time is exposed by these metrics, to monitor the {project_name} performance and how long it takes to processing the requests.

TIP: On a healthy cluster, the average processing time will remain stable.
Spikes or increases in the processing time may be an early sign that some node is under load.

====
*Tags*

`method`:: HTTP method.
`outcome`:: A more general outcome tag.
`status`:: The HTTP status code.
`uri`:: The requested URI.
