A specific question I had was tracing seems to be all about distributed context (from the way everyone talks/market it) where each distributed call is captured in a span.
But I didn't see (perhaps I missed it) about tracing inside a single instance where I want the individual method call to be traced to know which method call was expensive within that instance.
