java_heap:allocated_objects_size_avg is very noisy

Project Member Reported by hjd@chromium.org, Feb 8 2017

Issue description

java_heap:allocated_objects_size_avg is noisy enough that we are getting spurious regressions.

For eample here is a recent system_health.memory_mobile N5X log https://luci-logdog.appspot.com/v/?s=chrome%2Fbb%2Fchromium.perf%2FAndroid_Nexus5X_Perf__1_%2F4443%2F%2B%2Frecipes%2Fsteps%2Fsystem_health.memory_mobile%2F0%2Flogs%2Fjson.output%2F0

and these are the three numbers for load_news@@memory:chrome:browser_process:reported_by_chrome:java_heap:allocated_objects_size_avg:
19698992
22397328
18281744

Here are a graphs showing a spurious regression for load_news java_heap:allocated_objects_size_avg:

And two traces:

Is this work something we can prioritize, or should we keep this at Pri-3 for another few months?
Status: WontFix (was: Available)
From the analysis in 733894, and confirmed e.g. here:

Noise in this metric is no longer a concern. The main metric to focus now is by_os:system_memory:java_heap.
