Jason Lowe commented on MAPREDUCE-5311:
---------------------------------------

Many of our users leverage the slot millis counter as a metric for cluster 
utilization for jobs.  While I agree the "slot" concept is confusing in 
0.23/2.x, our users need some counter to track their utilization.  If these 
counters are deprecated, we need to create something more appropriate to 
replace them so users can still track cluster utilization.

I would like to see some sort of "resource-millis" counters so we can track the 
amount of time a job was consuming a particular cluster resource and how much 
of that resource during that time.  So memory would be tracked via MB-millis or 
GB-millis, CPU could be core-millis or vcore-millis, etc.  It would be great if 
this was tracked by YARN directly and available regardless of the app framework 
used, but that's a much bigger change.
