Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-11615:
------------------------------------
These metrics are normally consumed by a metrics system and regraphed, so I
don't think human parsing is that important.
Related note, I like to put the unit (e.g. "Nanos") into the metric and
variable name, since otherwise I have to look it up each time. Possible to do
this here too?

> Currently the {{FSNamesystemLock}} metrics created in HDFS-10872 track the
> lock hold time using {{Timer.monotonicNow()}}, which has millisecond-level
> precision. However, many of these operations hold the lock for less than a
> millisecond, making these metrics inaccurate. We should instead use
> {{System.nanoTime()}} for higher accuracy.
