stack commented on HBASE-7317:
------------------------------
bq. Should we be depending on something that only has a single contributor and
hasn't seen a commit in over three months?
Fair point.
Hope was that we'd add tracing to hbase w/ this as a start (and that hadoop
itself would be adding trace I suppose so we could go down into datanodes). If
no progress on tracing before, say 0.96, yeah, lets remove it. But maybe there
will be progress made in this issue.
Regards a central collector for traces, could try writing an hbase table.

> Key: HBASE-7317
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7317
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Brainstorming
> Components: IPC/RPC, regionserver
> Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin
> Priority: Minor
>
> I've seen cases during integration tests where the write or read request took
> an unexpectedly large amount of time (that, after the client went to the
> region server that is reported alive and well, which I know from temporary
> debug logging :)), and it's impossible to understand what is going on on the
> server side, short of catching the moment with jstack.
> Some solutions (off by default) could be
> - a facility for tests (especially integration tests) that would trace
> Server/Master calls into some log or file (won't help with internals but at
> least one could see what was actually received);
> - logging the progress of requests between components inside master/server
> (e.g. "request id=N received", "request id=N is being processed in MyClass",
> N being drawn on client from local sequence - no guarantees of uniqueness are
> necessary).
