             Summary: Skip UpdateCatalogMetrics if another thead is on-going in 
it
                 Key: IMPALA-11409
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11409
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Backend
            Reporter: Quanlong Huang
            Assignee: Quanlong Huang


Impala coordinator tracks local metrics of the catalog, e.g. number of 
dbs/tables. When use_local_catalog is enabled, it also tracks the cache 
metrics, e.g. cache hit/miss count/rate.

These metrics are updated at the end of each statement, even for simple 
statements like "USE <db>", "SET var=xxx", "SELECT 1". The catalog update 
thread will also update the metrics in the end.

These metrics are global metrics of the local catalog cache. They are not 
specifit to a simple statement. It's a waste to update the metrics concurrently.

We've seen "hanging issues" that all statements, including the catalog update 
thread, are slowly executing the UpdateCatalogMetrics() function. See details 
in the attached jstack dump.

Indeed, if one thread is running the UpdateCatalogMetrics() function, the other 
threads can skip it and move forward.
