The subject of performance monitoring and measurement has grown from infancy to childhood, and with this growth came substantial performance improvements even with superficial monitoring analysis. The recent increased interest in applying measurement techniques by manufacturers and users of large systems stems mainly from the high cost of development, purchase, and use of such systems. This cost obligates each to obtain quantitative information on the dynamic behavior of proposed or purchased equipment and software. This quantitative information is necessary when a determination is to be made of the difference between potential and actual performance of hardware and software.
