What are the metrics monitored in performance testing?

Answer»

Following are the metrics monitored in performance testing:

MetricsDescription
Processor utilizationTime spent by the processor to execute non-idle threads.
Memory usageAmount of physical memory available so that the server can process.
Disk timeTime taken by the disk to execute read/write request.
BandwidthRepresented in bits per second (bps) used by network interfaces.
CPU interrupts per secondAverage number of hardware interrupts received and processed by the processor each second.
Response timeTime taken to get the first character of the response from the server to the client.
ThroughputRate at which the server or network receives requests per second.
Amount of connection poolingNumber of user requests met by pooled CONNECTIONS. The higher the number, the better is the performance.
Maximum active sessionsMaximum sessions which are active at once.
Hits per secondNumber of hits EVERY second
Thread countsNumber of threads running actively
Private BYTESNumber of bytes allocated by the processor which cannot be shared AMONG other processes. They are used for measuring memory leaks and memory usage.
Committed memoryAmount of virtual memory utilized
Memory pages/secondNumber of pages read from or written to the disk to RESOLVE page faults.
Page faults/secondOverall rate at which fault pages are processed.
