I'm talking about the Distributed Counter concept in classic MapReduce
where all MR tasks for the same job can for example count overall bad
records and such. It's like what Curator's Distributed Atomic Long[1]
provides, without the subtract.

I could not find a reference to "metrics report" in Twill, but I'm
familiar with Hadoop's metrics.
