Sometimes we want to detect the hotspot of a cluster, for example, hot scanned tablet, hot wrote tablet,
but we have no insight about tablets in the cluster.
This patch introduce tablet level metrics to help to achieve this object, now support 4 metrics on tablets: `query_scan_bytes `, `query_scan_rows `, `flush_bytes `, `flush_count `.
However, one BE may holds hundreds of thousands of tablets, so I add a parameter for the metrics HTTP request,
and not return tablet level metrics by default.
Redesign metrics to 3 layers:
MetricRegistry - MetricEntity - Metrics
MetricRegistry : the register center
MetricEntity : the entity registered on MetricRegistry. Generally a MetricRegistry can be registered on several
MetricEntities, each of MetricEntity is an independent entity, such as server, disk_devices, data_directories, thrift
clients and servers, and so on.
Metric : metrics of an entity. Such as fragment_requests_total on server entity, disk_bytes_read on a disk_device entity,
thrift_opened_clients on a thrift_client entity.
MetricPrototype: the type of a metric. MetricPrototype is a global variable, can be shared by the same metrics across
different MetricEntities.
Add a JSON format for existing metrics like this.
```
{
"tags":
{
"metric":"thread_pool",
"name":"thrift-server-pool",
"type":"active_thread_num"
},
"unit":"number",
"value":3
}
```
I add a new JsonMetricVisitor to handle the transformation.
It's not to modify existing PrometheusMetricVisitor and SimpleCoreMetricVisitor.
Also I add
1. A unit item to indicate the metric better
2. Cloning tablet statistics divided by database.
3. Use white space to replace newline in audit.log
I add ChunkAllocator in this CL to put unused memory chunk to a chunk
pool other than return it to system allocator. Now we only change
MemPool's chunk allocation and free to this.
And two configuration are introduduced too. 'chunk_reserved_bytes_limit'
is the limit of how many bytes this chunk pool can reserve in total and
its default value is 2147483648(2GB). 'use_mmap_allocate_chunk': if
chunk is allocated via mmap and default value is false.
And in my test case with default configuration a simple like
"select * from table limit 10", this can improve throughput from 280 QPS
to to 650 QPS. And when I config 'chunk_reserved_bytes_limit' to 0,
which means this is disabled, the throughput is the same with origin's.
