Description

Node.js process instrumentation reports
process
metrics, which are not an intended for instrumentation libraries.Individual runtimes are expected to report their own CPU and memory metrics even if
process.*
ones are suitable.There is no clear conclusion on whether runtimes are not allowed to report them vs they should be opt-in.
Expected behavior
