> After several months of debugging and tuning the balancer and normalizer on a
> large production cluster, we found that working from visualizations of the
> current region state was very useful for understanding behaviors and
> quantifying improvements we made along the way. Specifically, we found that a
> chart of total assigned region count and total assigned region store files
> size per table per host was immensely useful for tuning the balancer.
> Histograms of store file size made understanding normalizer activity much
> more intuitive.
> Our scripts would parse the output of the shell's {{status 'detailed'}}
> command, extract the desired metric, and produce charts. I'd like to build
> into the master UI the equivalent functionality, with data coming directly
> from the {{ClusterMetrics object}}, and data rendered into an interactive
> chart rendered in the browser.
