Andrzej Bialecki commented on SOLR-4735:
-----------------------------------------
bq. `MetricRegistry` is really just a bunch of convenience methods and
thread-safety around a `MetricSet`
Well, my comment referred to the fact that {{MetricRegistry}} actually uses
{{ConcurrentHashMap}} for keeping metrics, and having a map with 100k+ keys is
never good. But I agree the API could have been more flexible - if reporters
were taking {{MetricSet}} we could fake one either from multiple registries or
from a subset of metrics from one registry, or a combination thereof.
We can implement an aggregating franken-registry by overriding all methods in
{{MetricRegistry}} to always delegate operations to sub-registries. It's a
little bit hackish but doable. We could create these as non-shared registries
only for the purpose of reporting.

> Following on from a discussion on the mailing list:
> http://search-lucene.com/m/IO0EI1qdyJF1/codahale&subj=Solr+metrics+in+Codahale+metrics+and+Graphite+
> It would be good to make Solr play more nicely with existing devops
> monitoring systems, such as Graphite or Ganglia. Stats monitoring at the
> moment is poll-only, either via JMX or through the admin stats page. I'd
> like to refactor things a bit to make this more pluggable.
> This patch is a start. It adds a new interface, InstrumentedBean, which
> extends SolrInfoMBean to return a
> [[Metrics|http://metrics.codahale.com/manual/core/]] MetricRegistry, and a
> couple of MetricReporters (which basically just duplicate the JMX and admin
> page reporting that's there at the moment, but which should be more
> extensible). The patch includes a change to RequestHandlerBase showing how
> this could work. The idea would be to eventually replace the getStatistics()
> call on SolrInfoMBean with this instead.
> The next step would be to allow more MetricReporters to be defined in
> solrconfig.xml. The Metrics library comes with ganglia and graphite
> reporting modules, and we can add contrib plugins for both of those.
> There's some more general cleanup that could be done around SolrInfoMBean
> (we've got two plugin handlers at /mbeans and /plugins that basically do the
> same thing, and the beans themselves have some weirdly inconsistent data on
> them - getVersion() returns different things for different impls, and
> getSource() seems pretty useless), but maybe that's for another issue.
