Maysam Yabandeh commented on HDFS-6982:
---------------------------------------

Let me take an example. 
Time period: 60 seconds
Bucket duration: 20 seconds
Bucket/window = 3

Event1: time 00:10:55

Current time: 00:11:03
Current sum for the past window (1 min) = 1

Event2: time 00:11:54

Current time: 00:12:07
Current sum for the past window (1 min) = 1

Now for this behavior to be implemented correctly we need to zero the content 
of the bucket number 3 because both Event1 and Event2 map to the same bucket 
but Event1 is irrelevant at time 00:12:07 since it happened before the last 60 
seconds.

Makes sense?

> In this jira we motivate the need for nntop, a tool that, similarly to what 
> top does in Linux, gives the list of top users of the HDFS name node and 
> gives insight about which users are sending majority of each traffic type to 
> the name node. This information turns out to be the most critical when the 
> name node is under pressure and the HDFS admin needs to know which user is 
> hammering the name node and with what kind of requests. Here we present the 
> design of nntop which has been in production at Twitter in the past 10 
> months. nntop proved to have low cpu overhead (< 2% in a cluster of 4K 
> nodes), low memory footprint (less than a few MB), and quite efficient for 
> the write path (only two hash lookup for updating a metric).
