 `log` is a log object created using python's standard `logging` module. You can
 read more about it at https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.html.
+
+### Metric-Grouping
+When writing a `Metric` using `self.log`, you can specify `type=metric`. If this is done, a background thread will automatically group multiple metrics into one by averaging values (to prevent writing too many log lines).
