For the pool usages, in the case of data skew, although the average is very 
low, the status of a task is not good.

I'm assuming that we will be presenting to the user flag "isBackpressured" 
somewhere somehow, for example by changing a colour of the job's vertex to red, 
so the "not good" status would be visible to a user, even if the average pool 
usage is low. So reporting max of {{outPoolUsage}} is kind of redundant to the 
back-pressure status. If at least one subtask is back-pressured, 
{{max(outPoolUsage) ~= 100%}}, otherwise {{max(outPoolUsage) ~= 0}}. 

Reporting average on the other hand gives extra information. If at least one 
subtask is back-pressured, {{average(outPoolUsage)}} can tell you whether this 
back-pressure is affecting all or a fraction of sub tasks.
