Github user joshelser commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/phoenix/pull/315 > Am I missing something here? Nope, it's me :). I didn't realize that the Factory was creating a new `Configuration` every time. The setup of `GlobalClientMetrics` just... doesn't give us any way to do this nicely :( I'm not sure what it takes to write a custom Factory (I think I did it once in an IT), but would be OK if you defer this. After you commit this, please update the website with these necessary changes (e.g. at least tell people that PQS exports metrics).
