The
x-axis
represents the percentage of the total number of transactions measured
during the scenario run. The
y-axis
represents the time taken to perform the
transactions.
In the above example, a system administrator determines that 2 seconds is an
acceptable time for a particular transaction. If 95 percent of the transactions are 2
seconds or less, the current configuration is suitable. If more than five percent of
the transactions have a response time greater than fifteen, the configuration must
be optimized. In the above graph, 95 percent of the
report
transactions were
performed in 2 seconds or less.
Compare the Percentile graph to a graph indicating average response time such
as the Transaction Performance Summary graph. A high response time for several
transactions may raise the overall average. However, if the transactions with a high
response time occurred fewer than five percent of the times, that factor may be
insignificant.
