[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-4089) blockCache contents report

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4089?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Doug Meil updated HBASE-4089:
-----------------------------

    Description: 
A UI that would display a block-cache report for a RegionServer would be helpful.  For example ...

table1
  cf1   100 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
  cf2   200 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours

table2
  cf1  75 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
  cf2 150 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours

... Etc.

The current metrics list blockCacheSize and blockCacheFree, but there is no way to know what's in there.  Any single block isn't really important, but the patterns of what CF/Table they came from, how big are they, and how long (on average) they've been in the cache, are important.

No such interface exists in HRegionInterface, so this is not just a UI request also an API change.  But I think it would be helpful from an operational perspective.
