Eli Collins commented on HBASE-1956:
------------------------------------

Forgot to ask, are you proposing HDFS expose a write latency as a dfs metric, 
that's what I was assuming, if so we should re-categorize this under HDFS or 
file a separate jira.

> HDFS write latency spikes especially are an indicator of general cluster 
> overloading. We see this where the WAL writer complains about writes taking > 
> 1 second, sometimes > 4, etc.  If for example the average write latency over 
> the monitoring period is exported as a metric, then this can feed into 
> alerting for or automatic provisioning of additional cluster hardware. While 
> we're at it, export read side metrics as well.
