> I just noticed that updatesBlockedSeconds is declared as a histogram (in 0.94), which makes little sense (neither mean, nor any percentiles are useful, as it is an every increasing number).
> This metric measures the total time the region server has blocked writes due to flushes that could not proceed due to too many store files... In that it should be a number. Unless there are objections I will make this so.
> Also, it looks like this metric was lost in 0.96 ([~eclark], [~stack], fyi).
