Jitter
The difference in time the thread for calculation of the asynchronous metrics was scheduled to wake up and the time it was in fact, woken up. A proxy-indicator of overall system latency and responsiveness.

The whole system load, averaged with exponential smoothing over 1 minute. The load represents the number of threads across all the processes (the scheduling entities of the OS kernel), that are currently running by CPU or waiting for IO, or ready to run but not being scheduled at this point of time. This number includes all the processes, not only clickhouse-server. The number can be greater than the number of CPU cores, if the system is overloaded, and many processes are ready to run but waiting for CPU or IO.

The amount of virtual memory mapped for the use of stack and for the allocated memory, in bytes. It is unspecified whether it includes the per-thread stacks and most of the allocated memory, that is allocated with the 'mmap' system call. This metric exists only for completeness reasons. I recommend to use the MemoryResident metric for monitoring.

Maximum amount of physical memory used by the server process, in bytes.
MemoryResident
The amount of physical memory used by the server process, in bytes.
MemoryShared
The amount of memory used by the server process, that is also shared by another processes, in bytes. ClickHouse does not use shared memory, but some memory can be labeled by OS as shared for its own reasons. This metric does not make a lot of sense to watch, and it exists only for completeness reasons.
MemoryVirtual
The size of the virtual address space allocated by the server process, in bytes. The size of the virtual address space is usually much greater than the physical memory consumption, and should not be used as an estimate for the memory consumption. The large values of this metric are totally normal, and makes only technical sense.

TotalBytesOfMergeTreeTables
Total amount of bytes (compressed, including data and indices) stored in all tables of MergeTree family.
TotalPartsOfMergeTreeTables
Total amount of data parts in all tables of MergeTree family. Numbers larger than 10 000 will negatively affect the server startup time, and it may indicate unreasonable choice of the partition key.
TotalPrimaryKeyBytesInMemory
The total amount of memory (in bytes) used by primary key values (only takes active parts into account).
TotalPrimaryKeyBytesInMemoryAllocated
The total amount of memory (in bytes) reserved for primary key values (only takes active parts into account).
TotalRowsOfMergeTreeTables
Total amount of rows (records) stored in all tables of MergeTree family.
UncompressedCacheBytes
Total size of uncompressed cache in bytes. Uncompressed cache does not usually improve the performance and should be mostly avoided.
UncompressedCacheCells
Total number of entries in the uncompressed cache. Each entry represents a decompressed block of data. Uncompressed cache does not usually improve performance and should be mostly avoided.
Uptime
The server uptime in seconds. It includes the time spent for server initialization before accepting connections.
