@zentol Thanks for replying. Indeed, the problem is caused by MetricFetcher
isn't synchronizing on the `MetricStore` object in MetricFetcher#addMetrics().
But in my opinion, synchronizing on the `MetricStore` is less efficient.
`MetricStore` wrapps more than one metric stores and they serves different
components(e.g Jobmanagerï¼Taskmangers) individually. If synchronizing on the
`MetricStore` , call of addMetrics() on Jobmanger's metric may wait for
addMetrics() on another taskmananger's metric done as they both acquire the
same lock, which is unnecessary.
