Rails: ActiveSupport notification subscriptions should be spans

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Currently, a lot of ActiveSupport notifications are used to create breadcrumbs

I think pretty much all of these would also be useful spans, particularly the cache stuff.

Cache is being worked on in #2380 - Not as breadcrumb :)

thx @nateberkopec, we could definitely update our list to include more spans. I'm a bit wary of including everything because

  • we had serialization problems in the past with some of them
  • in other languages, we've had some spans that just act as noise so I'd like to avoid high volume stuff
