Chris McCubbin updated ACCUMULO-1787:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: AccumuloWatcher.java
Also if it is of interest this is my simple rig to time the length of ingests.
It uses the same APIs to get info as the monitor page. It also computes things
like area under the major compaction chart and area under the load average
chart. It's not commented at all so use at your own risk.
For du in the above chart I used the accumulo shell du command.

>
> Given our current configuration of one compression codec per table we have
> the option of leaning towards performance with something like snappy or
> leaning towards smaller footprint with something like gzip. With a change to
> the way we configure codecs we might be able to approach the best of both
> worlds. Consider the difference between files that have been written by major
> or minor compactions and files that exist at any given point in time. For
> better footprint on disk we care about the latter, but for total CPU usage
> over time we care about the former. The two distributions are distinct
> because Accumulo deletes files after major compactions. If we figure out
> whether a file is going to be long-lived at the time we write it then we can
> pick the compression codec that optimizes the relevant concern.
> One way to distinguish is by file size. Accumulo writes many small files and
> later major compacts those away, so the distribution of written files is
> skewed towards smaller files while the distribution of files existing at any
> point in time is skewed towards larger files. I recommend for each table we
> support a general compression codec and a second codec for files under a
> configurable size.
