[jira] [Commented] (IMPALA-6705) TotalNetworkSendTime in query profile is misleading

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6705?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17189580#comment-17189580 ]

--------------------------------------

I got bitten by this recently, and it was very confusing. Linking to IMPALA-10137. +1 on fixing this.

> {{TotalNetworkSendTime}} is actually measuring the time which a fragment instance execution thread spent waiting for the completion of previous RPC. This is a combination of:
>  - network time of sending the RPC payload to the destination
>  - processing and queuing time in the destination
>  - network time of sending the RPC response to the originating node
> The name of this metric itself is misleading because it gives the impression that it's the time spent sending the RPC payload to the destination so a query profile with a high {{TotalNetworkSendTime}} may easily mislead a user into concluding that there is something wrong with the network. In reality, the receiving end could be overloaded and it's taking a huge amount of time to respond to an RPC.
> For this metric to be useful, we need to have a breakdown of those 3 components above.
