package metrics

// This file contains the functionality to represent a build event in respect
// to the metric system. A build event corresponds to a block of scoped code
// that contains a "Begin()" and immediately followed by "defer End()" trace.
// When defined, the duration of the scoped code is measure along with other
// performance measurements such as memory.
//
// As explained in the metrics package, the metrics system is a stacked based
// system since the collected metrics is considered to be topline metrics.
// The steps of the build system in the UI layer is sequential. Hence, the
// functionality defined below follows the stack data structure operations.
