Carsten Ziegeler reopened SLING-5965:
-------------------------------------
Sorry, I couldn't have a look earlier - but I think we should rethink some of
the metrics stuff.
The metrics itself seem to work fine and use Sling's commons metrics bundle
However the SchedulerHealthCheck requires classes from com.codahale.metrics
which break the abstraction of commons metrics. Interestingly commons metrics
is registring the MetricsRegistry as a service, which allows this strange
dependency and totally breaks isolation of commons metrics.
So I think, we need to fix commons metrics wrt the registry and create our own
version of that interface. Then we can use it here.

> Sling Scheduler jobs (aka Quartz-Jobs) should typically be fast running jobs.
> They are served from a thread-pool and should occupy that thread only for a
> short amount of time.
> If there are 'misbehaving' quartz-jobs that run for a very long time, they
> start to occupy threads from that thread-pool, thus have an influence on the
> performance of other scheduled/quartz-jobs.
> We should have metrics (using
> [sling.commons.metrics|https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/metrics.html])
> that provide information about internas of Sling Scheduler, such as average,
> max etc duration of scheduled jobs, as well as how many jobs are currently
> running and since when was the oldest job running.
> Based on this, a Health-Check can monitor the 'oldest job running' metric and
> flag {{critical}} when eg the oldest job is older than {{60'000ms}}
> (configurable, default).
