Promising project but the New relic comparison is misguided. New Relic does have server monitoring but it's core strength is in application layer with agents for java, ruby, .net, python, php applications.
- gtaylor 13y agoIndeed. Their application metrics have been incredibly useful for us at Pathwright. It's nice always knowing what views are slow, which comprise the bulk of our CPU time. The SQL time breakdowns are handy to. You can, of course, do all of these things on your own without New Relic, but a small team like us needs to be spending time on other things (like pushing the product forward).

But, it's incredible at saying "Your landing page is loading slowly because the time it takes to load your data from MySQL is slow. Oh, and here's the offending query." Different things.
