In MongoDB db.stats() slow, should I be worried to execute?

+1 vote

I want to list the size of the different database and trying the function:

db.stats()

But, my developer team is worried over that this might have a huge impact of the system. Should I be worried?

How does this function detect the statistic information such as the size of the different databases. Or is it a better way to detect the size of the database that I can use, which has little or no performance impact ..

I have tried this will no ill-effects. I would imagine it reads pre-calculated stats rather than generating them on demand.

How to call db.Collection.stats() from MongoDB java driver

From Mongodb client, we can use db.Collection.stats() to get status of collections, such as: 

+ Number of records (count) 
+ Size on disk (storageSize) 
+ Indexes (indexSizes) 
+ Average object size (avgObjSize)

Now I want to monitor these data from web backend with Mongodb java driver, please let me know how to get them?
I've referred: http://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/3.0/driver-async/getting-started/quick-tour-admin/ but it's not enough information for me. Any pointer?
