Hey just curious, why did you pick spacemonkeygo/monitor over mozilla-services/heka for data collection?

I was thinking of using heka for a logstash-like project and just wanted to see if you had found several know issues, or that monitor really shined, or that maybe the feature set you needed just didn't overlap to the point they were comparable for your needs?

It wasn't chosen for anything, it was just a related project. And I guess not for its data collection functionality -- that's orthogonal to the goals of the toolkit -- but presumably for the instrumentation and request tracing bits.
