### Process metrics
These exports should have the prefix `process_`. If a language or runtime
doesn't expose one of the variables it'd just not export it. All memory values
in bytes, all times in unixtime/seconds.

### Runtime metrics
In addition, client libraries are ENCOURAGED to also offer whatever makes sense
in terms of metrics for their language’s runtime (e.g. garbage collection
stats), with an appropriate prefix such as `go_`, `hostspot_` etc.
