Expand network assessment and RPS analysis guidance in sizing documentation
What does this MR do?
Improves sizing assessment documentation with clearer guidance for network capacity and RPS analysis edge cases:
- Add guidance to assess baseline traffic alongside peaks for network capacity decisions; Update recording templates to capture both baseline and peak network measurements - 795c5682
- Add fallback instructions when RPS queries timeout in high-activity environments 215ec447
- Exclude GraphQL controller from Web RPS requests - see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/software-delivery/operate/team-tasks/-/issues/1#note_2854016715

Author's checklist
-
Follow the: -
If you're adding a new page, add the product availability details under the H1 topic title. -
If you are a GitLab team member, request a review based on: - The documentation page's metadata.
- The associated Technical Writer.
If you are a GitLab team member and only adding documentation, do not add any of the following labels:
~"frontend"~"backend"~"type::bug"~"database"
These labels cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.
Reviewer's checklist
Documentation-related MRs should be reviewed by a Technical Writer for a non-blocking review, based on Documentation Guidelines and the Style Guide.
If you aren't sure which tech writer to ask, use roulette or ask in the #docs Slack channel.
-
If the content requires it, ensure the information is reviewed by a subject matter expert. - Technical writer review items:
-
Ensure docs metadata is present and up-to-date. -
Ensure the appropriate labels are added to this MR. -
Ensure a release milestone is set. - If relevant to this MR, ensure content topic type principles are in use, including:
-
The headings should be something you'd do a Google search for. Instead of Default behavior, say something likeDefault behavior when you close an issue. -
The headings (other than the page title) should be active. Instead of Configuring GDK, say something likeConfigure GDK. -
Any task steps should be written as a numbered list. - If the content still needs to be edited for topic types, you can create a follow-up issue with the docs-technical-debt label.
