Reduce default trace rate to 1%
asanderson15 opened this issue · comments
What happened?
Currently, the default trace rate for the tracer on the main server context is 100%. This is rarely the right tracing rate, and accidentally using it can have a significant fan out effect downstream.
What did you want to happen?
We should reduce the default trace rate to 0.01
(1%), which is a reasonable default for most services. We could do this either as a default in the Install config yaml annotations or by changing the fallback sampler to one with 1% sample rate here.
