Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-6747:
----------------------------------------

If people are using the Web UI to solve those problems, that's bad because it 
means that we have an education problem.  Most of the pro Hadoop admins 
(including myself) configure the system such that problems such as these are 
handled proactively via monitoring and metrics collection.  Putting it on the 
NN UI is really just a "yup, my phone went off for a valid reason" kind of 
thing.

Also, as [~esteban] points out, the *length* of the GC is more important that 
it *happened*. In modern JREs configured with modern GC engines, they do 
collection all the time.

> admins don't need to dig out GC logs.
