other plugins, its documentation has been moved to an own manpage,
L<collectd-snmp(5)>. Please see there for details.
+=head2 Plugin C<statsd>
+
+The I<statsd plugin> listens to a UDP socket, reads "events" in the statsd
+protocol and dispatches rates or other aggregates of these numbers
+periodically.
+
+The plugin implements the I<Counter>, I<Timer>, I<Gauge> and I<Set> types which
+are dispatched as the I<collectd> types C<derive>, C<latency>, C<gauge> and
+C<objects> respectively.
+
+The following configuration options are valid:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<Host> I<Host>
+
+Bind to the hostname / address I<Host>. By default, the plugin will bind to the
+"any" address, i.e. accept packets sent to any of the hosts addresses.
+
+=item B<Port> I<Port>
+
+UDP port to listen to. This can be either a service name or a port number.
+Defaults to C<8125>.
+
+=item B<DeleteCounters> B<false>|B<true>
+
+=item B<DeleteTimers> B<false>|B<true>
+
+=item B<DeleteGauges> B<false>|B<true>
+
+=item B<DeleteSets> B<false>|B<true>
+
+These options control what happens if metrics are not updated in an interval.
+If set to B<False>, the default, metrics are dispatched unchanged, i.e. the
+rate of counters and size of sets will be zero, timers report C<NaN> and gauges
+are unchanged. If set to B<True>, the such metrics are not dispatched and
+removed from the internal cache.

identifies a metric in I<Riemann>. If set to B<false> (the default), this is
only done when there is more than one DS.
+=item B<TTLFactor> I<Factor>
+
+I<Riemann> events have a I<Time to Live> (TTL) which specifies how long each
+event is considered active. I<collectd> populates this field based on the
+metrics interval setting. This setting controls the factor with which the
+interval is multiplied to set the TTL. The default value is B<2.0>. Unless you
+know exactly what you're doing, you should only increase this setting from its
+default value.
