<strong>Test</strong>ing for Performance and Scalability 225<br />

Area Performance counter name Threshold<br />

.NET CLR Memory (w3wp) # Bytes in all Heaps This value should be stable<br />

during the stress tests. It<br />

indicates the current memory<br />

allocated in bytes on the<br />

garbage collection heaps.<br />

If there is a memory leak<br />

within managed memory, this<br />

counter increases along with<br />

the Process (w3wp)\ Private<br />

Bytes performance counter.<br />

If there is a memory leak<br />

within unmanaged memory,<br />

the # Bytes in all Heaps<br />

performance counter remains<br />

stable, while the Private<br />

Bytes performance counter<br />

increases.<br />

.NET CLR Locks and Threads Contention Rate / sec This number should be less<br />

than 9/sec. For <strong>Enterprise</strong><br />

<strong>Library</strong>, higher numbers indicate<br />

poor scalability, particularly<br />

when running the code<br />

on computers with multiple<br />

processors or to 64-bit computers.<br />

A high contention rate<br />

indicates poor scalability and<br />

low throughput on multi-processor<br />

computers.<br />

Logical Disk (drive) Current Disk Queue Length This value should be no more<br />

than 2 requests per spindle,<br />

unless there is paging.<br />

Logical Disk (drive) Avg. Disk Read Queue Length This value should be no more<br />

than 2 requests per spindle,<br />

unless there is paging.<br />

Logical Disk (_Total) Avg. Disk Write Queue Length This value should be no more<br />

than 2 requests per spindle,<br />

unless there is paging.<br />

Logical Disk (drive)<br />

Avg. Disk/Sec Write<br />

Avg. Disk/Sec Read<br />

Both of these counters should<br />

have values of less than 6<br />

ms.<br />
