> While thinking about metrics improvements, I doubt how many users know that
> what 'exactly' is complete latency. In fact, it's somewhat complicated
> because additional waiting time could be added to complete latency because
> of single-thread model event loop of spout.
> Long running nextTuple() / ack() / fail() can affect complete latency but
> it's behind the scene. No latency information provided, and someone even
> didn't know about this characteristic. Moreover, calling nextTuple() could
> be skipped due to max spout waiting, which will make us harder to guess
> when avg. latency of nextTuple() will be provided.
> I think separation of threads (tuple handler to separate thread, as JStorm
> provides) would resolve the gap, but it requires our spout logic to be
> thread-safe, so I'd like to find workaround first.
> My sketched idea is let Acker decides end time for root tuple.
> There're two subsequent ways to decide start time for root tuple,
> 1. when Spout about to emit ACK_INIT to Acker (in other words, keep it as
> it is)
> - Acker sends ack / fail message to Spout with timestamp, and Spout
> calculates time delta
> - pros. : It's most accurate way since it respects the definition of
> 'complete latency'.
> - cons. : The sync of machine time between machines are very important.
> Sub-millisecond of precision would be required.
> 2. when Acker receives ACK_INIT from Spout
> - Acker calculates time delta itself, and sends ack / fail message to
> Spout with time delta
> - pros. : No requirement to sync the time between servers so strictly.
> - cons. : It doesn't contain the latency to send / receive ACK_INIT
> between Spout and Acker.
