------------------------------------
Another similar idea: this thread could run a quick ping to the host's default
gateway, and include warning messages if it appears the network has gone
down/flaked
> Make GC pauses more obvious to users

> Key: HBASE-3336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3336
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: regionserver
> Affects Versions: 0.92.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
>
> We often see users hit GC pauses, but it's not obvious to them what happened.
> I propose we add a "GCMonitor" thread which wakes up every few seconds and
> checks (a) that it slept for around the right amount of time, and (b) uses
> the JVM GC metrics to see if there was a long pause. If a long pause is
> detected we should output a very loud and obnoxious message to the logs
> indicating that a length GC pause occurred, and point to a wiki page on the
> topic.
