Profiling statsd operations still points to an extremely high utilization of re.sub operations (used in normalize_tags function)
Describe the solution you'd like
Optimize normalize_tags to take less computational complexity by using the Python3 built-in @lru_cache decorator
Describe alternatives you've considered
Homebrew LRU cache can be done if we want improvements on Python2 but due to pressure to not include further dependencies and possibility of incidental problems made this a non-starter (for now).
