This page lists performance metrics, i.e. properties of processes that we may wish to measure. It is intended to make the definitions of these properties clear so that different agents can use the data reliably. \\

| cpu time | Processing time used by the CPU, measured in milliseconds. | xsd:integer | millisecond | action:/performanceEfficiency/timeBehaviour/cpuTime | for Java and comparable processes, one could distinguish between measures outside the VM and inside the VM, but it is really easier to see this as the same attribute, just a different measurement method. this counts for memory in particular |
| cpu time | Processing time used by the CPU, measured in milliseconds. | xsd:integer | millisecond | action:/performanceEfficiency/timeBehaviour/cpuTime | one could define this as the cpu time used by the process, or as the cpu time used by the process and any children (doable on \*nix with top, for example).\\
if this is defined in the first way, we would need another attribute for the second interpretation since this is more relevant.\\ |

| peak memory \\ | Peak memory used during processing \\ | xsd:double \\ | MB \\ | action:/performanceEfficiency/resourceUtilization/peakMemory \\ | for Java and comparable processes, one could distinguish between measures outside the VM and inside the VM, but it is really easier to see this as the same attribute, just a different measurement method. This counts mosrly for memory, since JVM startup time is constant, but reserved memory is dependent on the call parameters\\ |
| average memory \\ | Average memory used during processing \\ | xsd:double \\ | MB \\ | action:/performanceEfficiency/resourceUtilization/averageMemory \\ | |
| used memory share \\ | Percentage of reserved memory actually used \\ | xsd:double \\ | percentage \\ | action:/performanceEfficiency/resourceUtilization/memoryShare \\ | (mostly relevant for Java processes, if at all)\\ |
| average load \\ | Processing load on machine during execution \\ | xsd:double \\ | percentage \\ | | this isnt a process measure, of course, but an interesting context measure that for example can be delivered using top \\ |
