Ben Manes commented on SOLR-15859:
----------------------------------
- {{Caffeine.recordStats()}} enables basic statistics and is available in
{{Cache.stats()}}.
- {{Cache.policy()}} provides inspections if optional features are enabled,
such as the when an entry will expire
- {{Cache.asMap()}} means that you can iterate over the cache, etc.
The cache maintains minimal state to avoid being memory wasteful. It tries to
capture the statistics that users could not, like the hit rate. For additional
information then the application needs to track what it would find useful. Your
example of the entry timestamps (creation, access time) that may differ from
its expiration time (e.g. TTL) is a good case of metadata that would add
per-entry memory overhead not needed by the cache. The tradeoff to capture it
may not make sense in the general case, but could be excellent for a particular
use-case. If something useful cannot be captured except by the cache itself,
then please raise the issue on the project.

> Key: SOLR-15859
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15859
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Andy Lester
> Assignee: Shawn Heisey
> Priority: Major
> Labels: FQ, cache, filtercache, metrics
>
> It would be very helpful to be able to inspect the contents of the
> filterCache.
> I'd like to be able to query something like
> {{/admin/caches?type=filter&nentries=1000&sort=numHits+DESC}}
> nentries would be allowed to be -1 to get everything.
> It would be nice to see these data items for each entry. I don't know which
> are available, but I'm thinking blue sky here:
> * cache key, exactly as stored
> * Timestamp when the entry was inserted
> * Whether the insertion of the entry evicted another entry, and if so which
> one
> * Timestamp of when this entry was last hit
> * Number of hits on this entry forever
> * Number of hits on this entry over some time period
> * Number of documents matched by the filter
> * Number of bytes of memory used by the filter
> These are the sorts of questions I'd like to be able answer:
> * "I just did a query that I expect will have added a cache entry. Did it?"
> * "Are my queries hitting existing cache entries?"
> * "How big should I set my filterCache size? Should I limit it by number of
> entries or RAM usage?"
> * "Which of my FQs are getting used the most? These are the ones I want in
> my firstSearcher queries." (I currently determine this by processing my old
> solr logs)
> * "Which filters give me the most bang for the buck in terms of RAM usage?"
> * "I have filter X and filter Y, but would it be beneficial if I made a
> filter X AND Y?"
> * "Which FQs are used more at certain times of the day? (Assuming I take
> regular snapshots throughout the day)"
> I imagine a response might look like:
> {{{}}
> {{ "responseHeader": {}}
> {{ "status": 0,}}
> {{ "QTime": 961}}
> {{ },}}
