This looks good, but there's a lot of information which would be good to lift up to "regular documentation" about our approach to carbon monitoring, and put those on OCaml.org. This might be as simple as creating a dedicated page on infra.ocaml.org for the 'current state of the monitoring' and referencing it from the blog post. @mtelvers has created similar pages for other parts of the site (like the machines list).
Thanks for the review and comments :))

Agreed. I see a few options:
Very nice work.
It would be good to know which machines are not currently covered by Clarke monitoring and what hacking is required to get the right stats out of them. I expect the ARM64 machines would be a good next target, they claim better efficiency which would be interesting to investigate. Combining that with the solver-service running on ARM64 we could get a nice compute load setup.

Agreed. I see a few options:
- Infrastructure specific things (for example tagging individual machines as being monitored in a certain way) can live here on the infra blog.
- Methods for doing monitoring should also probably live here.
- We could post updates linking the infra blog directly from https://ocaml.org/policies/carbon-footprint where we could start a chain of updates.
- Finally we need to expose the low-level metrics, to begin with perhaps just to CO2e number for the last seven days.

What (if anything) is blocking this going live? I'm happy with this and the request for documentation can happen separately.
I've added the follow up points to #47 (feel free to edit them/add more)
This is ready to go from my perspective. Any extra tasks can happen afterwards.
Thanks! You may want to announce this on https://discuss.ocaml.org
Thanks everyone! Discuss post: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/initial-emissions-monitoring-of-the-ocaml-org-infrastructure/12335
