Expected Behavior

Should the log "Removing previously scheduled metrics collector" happen every time kube-metrics-adapter logs "Collected new external metric"? It seems like it should not be removing the metrics collector each time?

Actual Behavior

"Removing previously scheduled metrics collector" happens after every "Collected new external metric"

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. use external http collector which hits a custom metrics api. the metrics api returns a payload of { custom_metric: 90 } and the hpa is configured to scale based on that value. Note: the scaling is working for me.
