FnordMetric allows you to chart events in real time. This is great for keeping track of user activity in your Rails app as demonstrated in this episode.

Interesting screencast. Could it be a mountable engine? Is possible to protect it with authentication?

There is a little information about doing so here: https://github.com/paulasmuth/fnordmetric/issues/60

I've just now asked for an example / gist

Does anyone know whether and if so how it's possible to use fnordmetric on heroku?

Yes you can.

This pull request enabled Fnordmetric to run as a rack app.

However, keep an eye in your Redis Store. Depending on the amounts of events you might end running out of space in your Redis REALLY QUICKLY.

I ate a 100MB Redis Store in just 3 days (Hight traffic website).

I see that fnordmetric is namespacing redis. Can this be easily integrated with resque using the same redis instance?

I am going to integrate the event tracking into my system. Will this lead to some performance issue when real time access increased sharply?

Can anyone describe how FnordMetric compares/contrasts to graphite-statsd??

Does anyone know if / how / links to an API or such that will allow me to pull for instance just one graph into my Rails app, for example for showing number of visits to a user's page on that user's dashboard?

How expensive would this solution be if you have 100,000+ interactions a day on your site? Does this scale well?
