Github user tillrohrmann commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2112 Yes the idea is introduce the histogram abstraction which allows us to use any histogram implementation. At the moment we don't have a need for an optimized implementation which might change in the future, though. Thus, for the time being I think it is a good compromise to offer the user the possibility to use Dropwizard histograms in his user code. With that in mind, I don't understand why things are not fitting together? What do you propose? Adding Dropwizard histograms to flink-core?
