Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers

[HugoPuntos]

Hello,

Thanks for all the work you've been doing on this exporter.

Several times a day, I can notice some holes in my chart and the following error in the exporter:

net/http: request canceled (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

Do you have any ideas on how I could reduce the number of occurrences?

Thanks,

You probably need to look at your scrape interval and timeout settings. Compare this against the scrape_duraiton_seconds.

Ya, default scrape timeout I think is 10s. Depending on the number of metric namespaces/total count of metrics within those namespaces it can take a while for GCP to return results.
