Erik Krogen updated SPARK-35259:
--------------------------------
    Summary: ExternalBlockHandler metrics have misleading unit in the name  (was: ExternalBlockHandler metrics have incorrect unit in the name)

>                 Key: SPARK-35259
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-35259
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Shuffle
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.1
>            Reporter: Erik Krogen
>            Priority: Major
>
> Today {{ExternalBlockHandler}} exposes a few {{Timer}} metrics:
> {code}
>     // Time latency for open block request in ms
>     private final Timer openBlockRequestLatencyMillis = new Timer();
>     // Time latency for executor registration latency in ms
>     private final Timer registerExecutorRequestLatencyMillis = new Timer();
>     // Time latency for processing finalize shuffle merge request latency in ms
>     private final Timer finalizeShuffleMergeLatencyMillis = new Timer();
> {code}
> However these Dropwizard Timers by default use nanoseconds ([documentation|https://metrics.dropwizard.io/3.2.3/getting-started.html#timers]). It's certainly possible to extract milliseconds from them, but it seems misleading to have millis in the name here.
> {{YarnShuffleServiceMetrics}} currently doesn't expose any incorrect metrics since it doesn't export any timing information from these metrics (which I am trying to address in SPARK-35258), but these names still result in kind of misleading metric names like {{finalizeShuffleMergeLatency_count}} -- a count doesn't have a unit. It should be up to the metrics exporter, like {{YarnShuffleServiceMetrics}}, to decide the unit and adjust the name accordingly.
