	// the Prometheus server. Usually, you would track the duration of
	// serving HTTP request without partitioning by outcome. Do something
	// like this only if needed. Also note how only status classes are
	// tracked, not every single status code. The latter would create an
	// even larger amount of time series. Request counters partitioned by
	// status code are usually OK as each counter only creates one time
	// series. Histograms are way more expensive, so partition with care and
	// only where you really need separate latency tracking. Partitioning by
	// status class is only an example. In concrete cases, other partitions
	// might make more sense.
