What I tried: prometheus-process-exporter -debug -once-to-stdout-delay 1s

What I saw:

What I expected:

Each time a scrape is done, I might see one error message; sometimes none, but scrape_partial_errors goes increases by hundreds when there's only about 600 processes total on the machine; with a config file that has five matchers the counter could increase by thousands without any errors in the -debug log. I'd like to know what are these partial-errors so I can address them.
