Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-4089:
---------------------------------------
bq. Does that mean that BlockCacheSummary returned from BlockCache should
implement writable, or is there another class that represents the
BlockCacheSummary that implements Writable that has the same information
Objects sent over RPC implement Writable directly, so by that convention
BlockCacheSummary should implement Writable.

> Summarized block-cache report for a RegionServer would be helpful. For
> example ...
> table1
> cf1 100 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> cf2 200 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> table2
> cf1 75 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> cf2 150 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> ... Etc.
> The current metrics list blockCacheSize and blockCacheFree, but there is no
> way to know what's in there. Any single block isn't really important, but
> the patterns of what CF/Table they came from, how big are they, and how long
> (on average) they've been in the cache, are important.
> No such interface exists in HRegionInterface. But I think it would be
> helpful from an operational perspective.
> Updated (7-29): Removing suggestion for UI. I would be happy just to get
> this report on a configured interval dumped to a log file.
