 # Storage
 
 Measure primarily uses **SQLite database** to store events. However, it also uses the file system to
-store parts of large events, like exceptions, attachments, etc. Deciding which events are directly
-stored in the database and which are stored in the file system is based on the size of the event.

 # Batching & export
 
-Measure exports events to the server in batches. All events for sessions that contain a crash are
-exported. All non-crashed sessions are exported by default, a sampling rate can be applied to
-non-crashed sessions to reduce the number of sessions exported. See [README](../README.md) for 
-more details about configuring sampling rate.
+Events are sent to the server in batches at regular intervals (30s) while the app is in foreground and when the app

-# Configuration
-
-The SDK is configured using the `MeasureConfig` object. The client can pass in a custom config at
-the time of initialization. These configurations can help in enabling/disabling features, preventing
-sensitive information from being sent or modifying the behavior of the SDK.
-
-Any configuration change made to `MeasureConfig` is a public API change and must also result in
-updating the documentation.
-
-See [README](../../docs/android/configuration-options.md) for more details about the 
-available configurations.
-
-## Applying configs
-
-Configs which modify events, like removing fields or decision to drop events are all centralized in
-the `EventTransformer` which makes it easy to keep these modifications in one place instead of
-scattering them throughout the codebase.
-
-However, some configs modify the behavior of collection itself, like `screenshotMaskColor`which
-changes
-the color of the mask applied to the screenshot. These configs are applied at the time of collection
-itself.

-# Benchmarks
 
-Measure SDK has a set of benchmarks to measure the performance impact of the SDK on the app.
-These benchmarks are collected using macro-benchmark on a Pixel 4a device running Android 13 (API 33).
-Each benchmark is run 35 times. See the [android/benchmarks](../../android/benchmarks/README.md) for
-more details, and the raw results are available in the 
-[android/benchmarkData](../../android/benchmarks/README.md) folder.
+# Performance Impact

+## Benchmarks
+
+We benchmark the SDK's performance impact using a Pixel 4a running Android 13 (API 33). Each test runs 35 times using 
+macro-benchmark. For detailed methodology, see [android/benchmarks](../../android/benchmarks/README.md).
 
 > [!IMPORTANT]
 > Benchmark results are specific to the device and the app. It is recommended to run the benchmarks
 > for your app to get results specific to your app. These numbers are published to provide
 > a reference point and are used internally to detect any performance regressions.

 * Takes 0.30ms to find the target view for every click/scroll gesture in a deep view hierarchy.
 * Takes 0.45ms to find the target composable for every click/scroll gesture in a deep composable
   hierarchy.

+## Profiling
+
+To measure the SDK's impact on your app, we've added traces to key areas of the code. These traces help you track 
+performance using [Macro Benchmark](https://developer.android.com/topic/performance/benchmarking/macrobenchmark-overview) 
+or by using [Perfetto](https://perfetto.dev/docs/quickstart/android-tracing) directly.

+* `msr-track-event` — time spent in storing an event to local storage. Almost all of this time is spent _off_ the main
+  thread.
