By faking my cookie using $.cookie('GeoIP', 'SG:XX:XX:0.0:-0.0:v4', { domain: '.wikipedia.org', path: '/' }), and clicking the logo on test.wikipedia.org repeatedly (we ignore manual refreshes), the browser eventually produced the following beacon. ⭐️Yay!

I then replayed it a few times using "Copy as cURL" (but with a different User-Agent, per our policy)

curl -i  -X POST -H 'user-agent: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188652' 'https://test.wikipedia.org/beacon/event?%7B%22event%22%3A%7B%22isAnon%22%3Atrue%2C%22mediaWikiVersion%22%3A%221.31.0-wmf.24%22%2C%22isOversample%22%3Atrue%2C%22oversampleReason%22%3A%22%5B%5C%22geo%3ASG%5C%22%5D%22%2C%22mediaWikiLoadComplete%22%3A238%2C%22originCountry%22%3A%22SG%22%2C%22namespaceId%22%3A0%2C%22revId%22%3A337981%2C%22action%22%3A%22history%22%2C%22netinfoEffectiveConnectionType%22%3A%224g%22%2C%22connectEnd%22%3A2%2C%22connectStart%22%3A2%2C%22domComplete%22%3A174%2C%22domInteractive%22%3A100%2C%22fetchStart%22%3A2%2C%22loadEventEnd%22%3A174%2C%22loadEventStart%22%3A174%2C%22requestStart%22%3A5%2C%22responseEnd%22%3A28%2C%22responseStart%22%3A23%2C%22secureConnectionStart%22%3A0%2C%22dnsLookup%22%3A0%2C%22redirecting%22%3A0%2C%22unload%22%3A0%2C%22firstPaint%22%3A96%7D%2C%22revision%22%3A17740037%2C%22schema%22%3A%22NavigationTiming%22%2C%22webHost%22%3A%22test.wikipedia.org%22%2C%22wiki%22%3A%22testwiki%22%7D;'

The reason for the replays is because we throttle metric path creation in Graphite, so at first when we try to write the data for just one event, in practice most of it will end up ignored, and won't be visible through Graphite/Grafana.

This is because for one event, we actually write 1,680 properties (140 metrics via statsd, each expanding to 12 Timer props).
