------------------------------------

[~jgrier] Thank you for sharing the link :-) The page said that ganglia already 
stores counters when the slope type of a metric is set to Slope.POSITIVE, which 
I wasn't aware of. 
I found the following explanation about Slope.POSITIVE:
"Using the value positive for the slope of a new metric will cause the 
corresponding RRD file to be generated as a COUNTER, with delta values being 
displayed instead of the actual metric values."
You're right. We actually didn't need to do that.

I also don't have any idea regarding the query language.
If Ganglia supports it, we could store metrics as GAUGE and just change a way 
to draw graphs.

> Expose metrics to graphite, ganglia and JMX.

> The metrics library allows to expose collected metrics easily to other 
> systems such as graphite, ganglia or Java's JVM (VisualVM).
