Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-9229:
---------------------------------

Thanks Haohui for the suggestion. 

[~surendrasingh] I agree {{NameNodeStatusMXBean}} does get pulled less 
frequently. But intuitively the directory size is a metric instead of NN status.

My alternative suggestion is to limit the frequency of checking the directory 
size to e.g. every 10 mins. If a request for the metric is made within the 10 
mins window, the result from the last measurement is returned.

> Expose size of NameNode directory as a metric
