Erik Krogen updated HADOOP-13782:
---------------------------------
    Attachment: HADOOP-13782.000.patch

Attaching v000 patch.

We have decided to create a new class, {{MutableRatesWithAggregation}}, rather 
than modify the existing {{MutableRates}} metrics class since it is an 
{{Evolving}} interface which can only be changed at a minor version bump, to be 
able to backport to older versions. I have aded a comment on {{MutableRates}} 
noting that its performance in high contention situations will be lacking in 
comparison.

I have updated {{RpcDetailedMetrics}}, the only consumer of {{MutableRates}}, 
to use {{MutableRatesWithAggregation}} instead since it is a point of 
potentially very high contention. 



> Make MutableRates metrics thread-local write, aggregate-on-read

> Currently the {{MutableRates}} metrics class serializes all writes to metrics 
> it contains because of its use of {{MetricsRegistry.add()}} (i.e., even two 
> increments of unrelated metrics contained within the same {{MutableRates}} 
> object will serialize w.r.t. each other). This class is used by 
> {{RpcDetailedMetrics}}, which may have many hundreds of threads contending to 
> modify these metrics. Instead we should allow updates to unrelated metrics 
> objects to happen concurrently. To do so we can let each thread locally 
> collect metrics, and on a {{snapshot}}, aggregate the metrics from all of the 
> threads. 
> I have collected some benchmark performance numbers in HADOOP-13747 
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12835043/benchmark_results) 
> which indicate that this can bring significantly higher performance in high 
> contention situations.
