This nozzle will take ValueMetric and CounterEvent metrics from the Cloud Foundry firehose and send them to an InfluxDB
Server for storage. It can be horizontally scaled, as long as the subscription ID (see below) is the same across all instances

Note about Batch Size: There is a direct correlation between the batch size and the amount of memory used. Running the app on Cloud Foundry, a batch size of 250 routinely uses around 550 MB RAM. A batch size of 500 will routinely go over 1 GB.
