APM Agent language and version: Latest v3, Ruby
We're using Ruby APM to trace some Sidekiq jobs and the APM agent picks these up nicely. However, we have a large number of jobs that run for over an hour (some even run for mutliple hours - don't ask!) and I'm seeing that those transactions doesn't appear to be captured. Looking at the bucketing of transactions, the longest one I see is 15 minutes. Yet looking in sidekiq there are hundreds of jobs that are running for > 1 hour.
One thing I notice is that for this service I did have the ELASTIC_APM_TRANSACTION_SAMPLE_RATE
set to 0.7 so I'm wondering if it just wasn't sampling them. I'd have expected to see at least a couple though.
Is there some maximum limit to a transaction trace in either time or size and can it be tweaked if so?
Cheers
