Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-8370:
---------------------------------------
bq. I think we need to fix that number.
+1
Configuration settings can change how we handle the different block types on a
per type basis. That's only half the story if we do not have per-block-type
metrics too.

> I am wondering whether the HBase cachingHitRatio metrics that the region
> server UI shows, can get me a break down by data blocks. I always see this
> number to be very high and that could be exagerated by the fact that each
> lookup hits the index blocks and bloom filter blocks in the block cache
> before retrieving the data block. This could be artificially bloating up the
> cache hit ratio.
> Assuming the above is correct, do we already have a cache hit ratio for data
> blocks alone which is more obscure ? If not, my sense is that it would be
> pretty valuable to add one.
