Stats: Flaky errors when exporting to Stackdriver

[rghetia]

@yanweiguo it seems like underlying grpc is not able to establish connection with the server. There could be number of reasons why it cannot establish the connection. But I highly doubt that it is related to go-exporter.

If it is related to go-exporter, any ideas to debug and fix it?

you could turn on debugging for grpc by setting env variables
GRPC_GO_LOG_VERBOSITY_LEVEL=99
GRPC_GO_LOG_SEVERITY_LEVEL=info

I also get these pretty frequently...

I'm also getting these in my logs:

2019/06/13 14:46:53 stackdriver.go:420: Failed to export to Stackdriver: rpc error: code = DeadlineExceeded desc = context deadline exceeded

Based on this post, seems to be a code issue:

Has anyone managed to figure out what is the underlying issue? Have been seeing these every couple of days. The link above is no longer working.
