Review Comment:
   Add a better definition for scraping period. Currently "scrape period" is 
vague. It's better to explicitly define it. There's 2 different concepts that 
are involved:
   
   * Internally, there's a caching period for the metrics response. In the 
implementation, the caching period is defined with 
`managedLedgerStatsPeriodSeconds`.
   * In Prometheus, there's a global setting called 
["scrape_interval"](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#configuration-file)
 and in the Prometheus operator there's [PodMetricsEndpoint 
interval](https://github.com/prometheus-operator/prometheus-operator/blob/main/Documentation/api.md#monitoring.coreos.com/v1.PodMetricsEndpoint)
 for configuring the scraping interval for individual scraping endpoints.
   
   Please revisit the description to resolve the issue with the undefined 
concept "scrape period".
