// Package orca implements Open Request Cost Aggregation, which is an open
// standard for request cost aggregation and reporting by backends and the
// corresponding aggregation of such reports by L7 load balancers (such as
// Envoy) on the data plane. In a proxyless world with gRPC enabled
// applications, aggregation of such reports will be done by the gRPC client.
//
// # Experimental
//
// Notice: All APIs is this package are EXPERIMENTAL and may be changed or
// removed in a later release.

// The grpc package cannot directly call toLoadReport() as that would cause an
// import cycle. Hence this roundabout method is used.
