[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-3255) MR2 needs a counter analogous to "slot seconds"

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3255?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13134773#comment-13134773 ] 

Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-3255:
----------------------------------------

Ah, it looks like the SLOT_MILLIS_* counters still exist in MR2, they just don't show up in the "Counters" tab on the web UI. They do show up when the job finishes.

> In older versions of MR, we have a SLOT_MILLIS counter which counts how many seconds each task (and job) used of map/reduce slots. Since we no longer have the concept of a "slot" in MR2, we should change this counter to be something like "RAM-megabyte-seconds" - ie each task is charged for its resource requirement * the number of seconds it occupied those resources.
> Ideally these would be collected by the NodeManager rather than the children, so that they could be used for billing purposes, but a first cut of the counters through the MR framework itself would probably still be useful in more trusting environments.
