    Description

      Often times users struggle to understand what happened when a long JVM pause (GC or otherwise) causes things to malfunction inside a Hadoop daemon. For example, a long GC pause while logging an edit to the QJM may cause the edit to timeout, or a long GC pause may make other IPCs to the NameNode timeout. We should add a simple thread which loops on 1-second sleeps, and if the sleep ever takes significantly longer than 1 second, log a WARN. This will make GC pauses obvious in logs.
