Li Lu resolved YARN-3595.
-------------------------
    Resolution: Later

Since we're moving phoenix storage to aggregation side, we need to fix this after we have a full story of the offline (time-based) aggregation.

> The story about the connection cache in Phoenix timeline storage is a little bit long. In YARN-3033 we planned to have shared writer layer for all collectors in the same collector manager. In this way we can better reuse the same heavy-weight storage layer connection, therefore it's more friendly to conventional storage layer connections which are typically heavy-weight. 
> Phoenix, on the other hand, implements its own connection interface layer to be light-weight, thread-unsafe. To make these connections work with our "multiple collector, single writer" model, we're adding a thread indexed connection cache. However, many performance critical factors are yet to be tested. 
> In this JIRA we're tracing performance optimization efforts using this connection cache. Previously we had a draft, but there was one implementation challenge on cache evictions: There may be races between Guava cache's removal listener calls (which close the connection) and normal references to the connection. We need to carefully define the way they synchronize. 
> Performance-wise, at the very beginning stage we may need to understand:
> # If the current, thread-based indexing is an appropriate approach, or we can use some better ways to index the connections. 
> # the best size of the cache, presumably as the proposed default value of a configuration. 
> # how long we need to preserve a connection in the cache. 
> Please feel free to add this list.
