+## Metrics
+
+To enable metrics on the builder you will need to enable metrics with the flags `--metrics --metrics.addr 127.0.0.1 --metrics.builder` which will run
+a metrics server serving at `127.0.0.1:6060/debug/metrics`. This will record performance metrics such as block profit and block building times.
+The full list of metrics can be found in `miner/metrics.go`. 
+
+See the [metrics docs](https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/monitoring/metrics) for geth for more documentation.
