Measuring network and server response times:
You can measure network and server response time, excluding response time of
the GUI front end, by running DB Vusers on the client machine. DB Vusers
emulate client calls to the server without the user interface. When you run many
DB Vusers from the client machine, you can measure how the load affects
network and server response time.
·
Measuring GUI response time:
You can determine how the client application interface affects response time by
subtracting the previous two measurements:
GUI response time = end-to-end - network and server
