Never heard about this either, I ignore node.js stuff.  I was 
just reading this interesting post on tracing/profiling a couple 
days ago: is it efficient enough to find some of these tail 
latency issues?

Given even Dtrace doesn't always work, Statsd is not going to 
work for all of those either, but I wonder if it will work 
sometimes.

Btw, pretty damning of HN/reddit that neither has that tracing 
link, which is why I don't read those stupid sites.
