Any plans to emit Thread Stall events through MXBeans?

[Misha Dmitriev]

Hi ZGC team,

Are there any plans at this time to enable emission of Thread Stall events through MXBeans? We all know that ZGC stop-the-world GC pauses are normally very short. But we've noticed that for real apps at LinkedIn, thread stalls can sometimes be really long (up to a few sec), and apparently, they may affect latencies very noticeably at times. Thus, any system that monitors ZGC performance needs to track both types of GC events. We currently achieve that in some of our monitoring systems through gc.log parsing in real time, but MXBeans may have some advantages in some situations.

The same question is valid for Shenandoah as well.

Thanks,

Misha
