Hello Lee,
instead of rolling your own metrics library I would suggest using one of
the existing tools, such as:

cloud:
* *newrelic* https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/java/new-relic-for-java

open source (self-hosted):
* *kamon* http://kamon.io
* codahale metrics metrics.codahale.com/getting-started/ + hosted graphite
instance // kind of roll your own, you could use timers

I personally really like kamon (and they provide a VM with graphite+grafana
preinstalled, so you can give it a spin easily).
Newrelic is also pretty cool and they do provide initial akka support too,
it's cool if you want to monitor your servers and other apps in the same
place.


If your question is not about "prod monitoring" but general one shot
measurements, you can always get System.nanoTime or use Codahale Metrics +
the console printer.
Depends on how fancy you want to get.
