Performance Data
The most valuable result of testing site/application capacity and overall
performance is the number of pages/hits per second that it can serve under
different user load. Note that a hit is a single request for resource
(page code, image, script and so on) sent to the server, while each page
may include many hits. If, for instance, "Show pictures" checkbox in advanced
Internet Explorer options is turned off, the number of hits will be equal
to the number of pages.
Performance Data report contains information on the level of performance:
the number of executed profiles/pages/hits per specified timing unit (second,
minute or hour). Timing unit is specified in Log
and Report Settings (Timing combo-box).
Click on Performance Data subfolder of Summary Report folder in Navigation Pane to display the
report.
The whole test duration interval is divided into the number of intervals
equal to HTML report dimension
value. The program calculates averaged values through these intervals
and shows them in corresponding columns of tables. If you watch tables
during test run, you will see how they are being filled in: one column
after another until the last column is filled in.
The Total column of each table shows the results averaged through the
whole test duration interval for each profile.
The Total row of each table shows the results summed over all user profiles.
Profiles per second
For each profile, this table shows the speed of profile execution.
Pages per second
This table shows the number of pages executed per timing unit (second,
minute or hour).
Hits per second
This table shows the number of hits executed per timing unit (second,
minute or hour).
