Statix is an Elixir client for StatsD-compatible servers. It is focused on speed without sacrificing simplicity, completeness, or correctness.

What makes Statix the fastest library around:

• direct sending to socket ^[1]
• caching of the UDP packet header
• connection pooling to distribute the metric sending
• diligent usage of IO lists

^[1] In contrast with process-based clients, Statix has lower memory consumption and higher throughput – Statix v1.0.0 does about 876640 counter increments per flush:

for _ <- 1..10_000 do
  Task.start(fn ->
    for _ <- 1..10_000 do
      StatixSample.increment("sample", 1)
    end
  end)
end

See the documentation for detailed usage information.

Add Statix as a dependency to your mix.exs file:

defp deps() do
  [{:statix, ">= 0.0.0"}]
end

Then run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch the dependencies.
