Elapsed Time
An elapsed time was recorded for each client session. As part of the Visual
Test script, the elapsed time was computed and stored in a file on the server’s
disk. Elapsed time was calculated by subtracting the time the script started
from the time the script finished.
The elapsed time includes the time required to load both the Microsoft Word
and Microsoft Excel applications. It does not include the time required to
establish the TSE client session on the server.
The following chart shows the minimum elapsed time recorded when running 0,
1, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 client sessions for each of the tested server
configurations.
