If you're only paying attention to p95/p99 in relation to network you're likely to be missing interesting and useful information. e.g. knowing that on average a user gets a page returned in 2 seconds is great, but if your p95 is out in the 30 second region that's a number of potentially unhappy users. I'd see the ideal goal as getting your mean as low as possible *and* your p95/p99 as close to your mean as possible :) Paul _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
