- update README.md with new docker instructions
- update docs/configuration.md
- update .github/workflows to have pinned action versions
- gofmt events package
- fix small bugs in CI scripts
- reduce config options for internal/perf/monitor and config. A ring buffer is used to keep 1hr of entries at max 5s granularity. For long term stats use prometheus monitoring on /metrics
