Response Time Info
Response Time Info
The RESPONSE TIME INFO section of the statistics display provides information
about the response time of terminal tasks. Response time for a terminal is the length of
time that elapses from the moment a user presses a function key until the next
opportunity to press a function key.
Example 5-8 shows only the RESPONSE TIME INFO section of the sample terminal
statistics.
The Table 5-6 lists the response time statistics and what they indicate.
The following are the limits imposed on measurement collection:
•
Measurements will stop for any terminal upon the 99,999,999th measurement.
•
Any measurement greater than 99,999,999.99 seconds is discarded.
•
Once a measurement counter reaches 99,999,999.99 seconds, measurements will
stop being collected for this terminal.
•
Response times are rounded to the nearest hundredth of a second by the
PATHMON process.
