Comment (by linda):
For additional clarity: I am not a color expert (on the level of choosing
colors for graphing libraries), but FWIW, I think the current colors used
on the metrics page look fine.
Blue is generally used more and different shades of blue are easier to
distinguish than other colors. Since many are red/green colorblind, those
aren't used so much. Red, orange, yellow, and green, also have
connotations (red = bad, green = good, for instance), and are only used if
the whole rainbow is there. Since purple is a mix of red + blue, different
shades of purple (a warm purple and a cooler purple of similar
saturation/lightness) are harder to distinguish, etc.
