Description

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-2153 introduced a dependency on metrics-ganglia, which depends on remotetea-oncrpc. This library appears to be licensed under LGPL.

The Dropwizard metrics project removed it for the same reason https://github.com/dropwizard/metrics/issues/1319. I think we also need to get rid of it.
