How to measure time spent by collector.collect?

Bắt đầu với generator Collector.collect được hiển thị và decorator Gauge.time(), sau đó so sánh thời gian được đo bởi decorator với mã bên trong collect(). Giải thích tại sao hai phép đo khác nhau và ghi lại hành vi này để người dùng có thể đo chính xác thời gian thu thập của collector.

Having a 3rd-party application which can not expose any metrics by itself I wrote my own exporter which takes data from the app and exposes metrics. The next idea was to measure and expose to prometheus an exact time it takes for all of the collectors to get actual data from the app. But two different approaches - with collector.collect() decorator and measurements taken directly inside of collector.collect() yields different results, and I don't understand what the decorator is actually measures.

Could you please explain this difference or maybe I'm missing something?

import time
from typing import Iterable
from prometheus_client import make_wsgi_app, Gauge
from prometheus_client.core import REGISTRY, GaugeMetricFamily, Metric
from prometheus_client.registry import Collector
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server


COLLECTOR_TIME = Gauge('collector_spent_secods', 'Time spent by collector to get data', ['collector'])


class MetricsCollector(Collector):
    @COLLECTOR_TIME.labels('decorator').time()
    def collect(self) -> Iterable[Metric]:
        st = time.perf_counter()
        gauge = GaugeMetricFamily(
            name='some_metric_seconds',
            documentation='Some seconds metric',
            labels=['somename']
        )
        time.sleep(1)
        gauge.add_metric(['foo'], 3.0)
        COLLECTOR_TIME.labels('inside').set(time.perf_counter() - st)
        yield gauge


if __name__ == "__main__":
    REGISTRY.register(MetricsCollector())
    app = make_wsgi_app(REGISTRY)
    host = '0.0.0.0'
    port = 6543
    httpd = make_server(host, port, app)
    httpd.serve_forever()
