Can you give more context on what you mean around sampling. What does an OTLP endpoint have to do with it?

multiple services, that should be sampled based on latency. this only works if you have something like: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-co... or https://grafana.com/docs/tempo/latest/configuration/grafana-... in between.

we do use it quite extensivly besides the overhead, because we get lots of insights wenn we have a slow running endpoint.
