> We've stumbled on serious performance issues after upgrading to Solr 6.4.1. Looks like the new metrics collection system in MetricsDirectoryFactory is causing a major slowdown. This happens with an index configuration that, as far as I can see, has no metrics specific configuration and uses luceneMatchVersion 5.5.0. In practice a moderate load will completely bog down the server with Solr threads constantly using up all CPU (600% on 6 core machine) capacity with a load that normally  where we normally see an average load of < 50%.
> I took stack traces (I'll attach them) and noticed that the threads are spending time in com.codahale.metrics.Meter.mark. I tested building Solr 6.4.1 with the metrics collection disabled in MetricsDirectoryFactory getByte and getBytes methods and was unable to reproduce the issue.
> As far as I can see there are several issues:
> 1. Collecting metrics on every single byte read is slow.
> 2. Having it enabled by default is not a good idea.
> 3. The comment "enable coarse-grained metrics by default" at https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/branch_6x/solr/core/src/java/org/apache/solr/update/SolrIndexConfig.java#L104 implies that only coarse-grained metrics should be enabled by default, and this contradicts with collecting metrics on every single byte read.
