This is awesome, and more choice is definitely good, but I'm curious if Github tried out statsite[1] at all in this process? My guess is that these two tools were built at the exact same time solving the same problems.

We did not try out statsite, but it also looks great! Brubeck has been under development internally since October 2012. We're really excited to be able to share it with everyone.

switched from statsd to statsite a few years ago and haven't looked back. highly recommend. same high quality code you'd expect from armon and the hashicorp crew (though statsite predates hashicorp, I believe).

statsite is also based on a event-loop and is limited to a single core (no smp).

To clarify, statsite does spawn threads to do some of the aggregation and flushing at the end of the collection interval, but yes it is possible to saturate the main loop at a very high ingest rate.

This. We recently had to upgrade to a c4 instance in AWS because the single core on a c3 couldn't take what we were sending. We needed something like Brubeck because eventually the c4 will run out of headroom too.
