// Package statsd provides a StatsD backend for package metrics. StatsD has no
// concept of arbitrary key-value tagging, so label values are not supported,
// and With is a no-op on all metrics.
//
// This package batches observations and emits them on some schedule to the
// remote server. This is useful even if you connect to your StatsD server over
// UDP. Emitting one network packet per observation can quickly overwhelm even
// the fastest internal network.
