Hi Ibrahim, let me try this again :-) - You have a process that generates a sequence of Zookeeper requests that will be executed asynchronously.
- This process will - due to the asynchronous nature of the request submission - only know when the last request has been sent off, not when the last request has actually been executed by Zookeeper. - You can find out the start time of the entire process (just before the first request is sent). - You cannot find out the end time of the entire process (just after the last request has been executed). So, you want get notified when all of the work has been done. This can be accomplished by a special, additional request to set the value of a znode, e.g., /tests/status to a certain value. What you should do now is (preferably in a separate process that gets its own ZooKeeper session): - Just before you start the submission of the test requests, run the watcher process and let it create this node /tests/status if it does not already exist. - In the watcher process, then get the data of this node with ZooKeeper.getData(String, Watcher, Stat) and a Watcher that's non-null. The Watcher could simply log the time when it encounters any event. That should suffice. - Now run your test code with all of your tests, submitting a gazillion of funny requests to Zookeeper. - Finally, in the test program, in the same session as the tests themselves, change the value of your special, well-known znode /tests/status via ZooKeeper.setData(String, byte[], int) to some new value, e.g., the current time as a simple String. - When this has been executed, the test process can die. - The watcher process will get notified when the update request to /tests/status *has been executed*, print the test end time and you'll be happily computing the difference. That's it. I hope this is a bit more clear now :-) ...assuming, of course, that you're doing the clients in Java.
