-## Controller Helpers
-
-`librato-rails` also has special helpers which are available inside your controllers:
-
-#### instrument_action
-_experimental_, this interface may change:
-
-Use when you want to profile execution time or request volume for a specific controller action:
-
-```ruby
-class CommentController < ApplicationController
-  instrument_action :create # can accept a list
-
-  def create
-    # ...
-  end
-end
-```
-
-Optionally, you can instrument all controller actions:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
-  instrument_action :all
-
-  def create
-    # ...
-  end
-
-  def show
-    # ...
-  end
-end
-```
-
-Once you instrument an action, `librato-rails` will start reporting a set of metrics specific to that action including:
-
-* rails.action.request.total     (# of requests)
-* rails.action.request.slow      (requests >= 200ms to produce)
-* rails.action.request.exceptions
-* rails.action.request.time      (total time spent in action)
-* rails.action.request.time.db   (db interaction time)
-* rails.action.request.time.view (view rendering time)
-
-Each instrumented action will appear as a source for the `rails.action.*` metrics, for example `mycontroller.action.html`.
-
-IMPORTANT NOTE: Metrics from `instrument_action` take into account all time spent in the ActionController stack for that action, including before/after filters and any global processing. They are _not_ equivalent to using a `Librato.timing` block inside the method body.

 `librato-rails` and [ActiveSupport::Notifications](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Notifications.html) work great together.

 ## Cross-Process Aggregation
 
-`librato-rails` submits measurements back to the Librato platform on a _per-process_ basis. By default these measurements are then combined into a single measurement per source (default is your hostname) before persisting the data.
+`librato-rails` submits measurements back to the Librato platform on a _per-process_ basis. By default these measurements are then combined into a single measurement per default tags (detects `service`, `environment` and `host`) before persisting the data.
 
 For example if you have 4 hosts with 8 unicorn instances each (i.e. 32 processes total), on the Librato site you'll find 4 data streams (1 per host) instead of 32.
 Current pricing applies after aggregation, so in this case you will be charged for 4 streams instead of 32.
 
-If you want to report per-process instead, you can set `source_pids` to `true` in
-your config, which will append the process id to the source name used by each thread.
-
 ## Troubleshooting
 
 Note that it may take 2-3 minutes for the first results to show up in your Librato account after you have started your servers with `librato-rails` enabled and the first request has been received.
