Varun Sharma commented on HBASE-8370:
-------------------------------------
We can make the hit percent a double.
But if we never evict index blocks, one option is to only count DataBlocks for
HitPercent, CacheHitCount, CacheMissCount. I know that is not the case for
0.94. Is that the case for trunk or can we change these metrics to only
instrument data blocks then ?
Anyone else have opinions ?

> 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.
