Additional Considerations
Points to consider when reporting component response times include:
·
Relate component response times to end-user activities. Because it is not always
obvious what end-user activities are impacted by a component's response time, it is a
good idea to include those relationships in your report.
·
Explain the degree to which the component response time matters. Sometimes
the concern is that a component might become a bottleneck under load because it is
processing too slowly; at other times, the concern is that end-user response times are
noticeably degraded as a result of the component. Knowing which of these conditions
applies to your project enables you to make effective decisions.
Trends
Trends are one of the most powerful but least-frequently used data-reporting methods.
Trends can show whether performance is improving or degrading from build to build, or
the rate of degradation as load increases. Trends can help technical team members
quickly understand whether the changes they recently made achieved the desired
performance impact.
