> Cassandra has a lot of metrics collected, many of them are collected per 
> table, so their instance number is multiplied by number of tables. From one 
> side it gives a better observability, from another side metrics are not for 
> free, there is an overhead associated with them:
> 1) CPU overhead: in case of simple CPU bound load: I already see like 5.5% of 
> total CPU spent for metrics in cpu framegraphs for read load and 11% for 
> write load. 
> Example: [^cpu_profile_insert.html] (search by "codahale" pattern). The 
> framegraph is captured using Async profiler build: 
> async-profiler-3.0-29ee888-linux-x64
> 2) memory overhead: we spend memory for entities used to aggregate metrics 
> such as LongAdders and reservoirs + for MBeans (String concatenation within 
> object names is a major cause of it, for each table+metric name combination a 
> new String is created)
> LongAdder is used by Dropwizard Counter/Meter and Histogram metrics for 
> counting purposes. It has severe memory overhead + while has a better scaling 
> than AtomicLong we still have to pay some cost for the concurrent operations. 
> Additionally, in case of Meter - we have a non-optimal behaviour when we 
> count the same things several times.
> The idea (suggested by [~benedict]) is to switch to thread-local counters 
> which we can store in a common thread-local array to reduce memory overhead. 
> In this way we can avoid concurrent update overheads/contentions and to 
> reduce memory footprint as well.
