Yes, this is really good to know. With Jolokia, it is difficult to parse the output a bit because of the presence of special characters in the mbean name like ' http://localhost:17330/jolokia/read/solr!/my!-collection_shard1_replica2:*'
The presence of slashes etc. makes parsing and querying a bit messy. And if we know for sure that Jolokia based metrics are less performant anyways, then we can just use the metric APIs forever.
