[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-2888) Review all our metrics

["Lars George (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2888?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13071072#comment-13071072 ] 

Lars George commented on HBASE-2888:
------------------------------------

Another issue I found using the metrics is that all new client API calls are lumping everything under "multi" (for the RPC calls), for all batchable operations (which are most). This makes it difficult to track actual get/put/delete calls and their counts. Obviously this is OK in terms of RPC call counts, but these metrics were useful to see what the request pattern looks like. Trunk adds read/write counts to the RS metrics, which is good. But maybe we should have a more detailed count as well? Only if needed.

> HBase publishes a bunch of metrics, some useful some wasteful, that should be improved to deliver a better ops experience. Examples:
>  - Block cache hit ratio converges at some point and stops moving
>  - fsReadLatency goes down when compactions are running
>  - storefileIndexSizeMB is the exact same number once a system is serving production load
> We could use new metrics too.
