> We are trying to report on replication lag and find that there is no good
> single metric to do that.
> ageOfLastShippedOp is close, but unfortunately it is increased even when
> there is nothing to ship on a particular RegionServer.
> I would like discuss a few options here:
> Add a new metric: replicationQueueTime (or something) with the above meaning.
> I.e. if we have something to ship we set the age of that last shipped edit,
> if we fail we increment that last time (just like we do now). But if there is
> nothing to replicate we set it to current time (and hence that metric is
> reported to close to 0).
> Alternatively we could change the meaning of ageOfLastShippedOp to mean to do
> that. That might lead to surprises, but the current behavior is clearly weird
> when there is nothing to replicate.
> Comments? [~jdcryans], [~stack].
> If approach sounds good, I'll make a patch for all branches.
> Edit: Also adds a new shippedKBs metric to track the amount of data that is
> shipped via replication.
