Abstract

See full text

One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for determining client-perceived server response time enables a user to accurately measure client-perceived server response time in the presence of packet loss. In one embodiment, the inventive method includes capturing a copy of a first packet traversing a computing network between a client and a server and modifying a server-measured transaction start time to account for a number of packets captured and inferred prior to capturing the first packet. Modifying the server-measured response time in this manner enables the server-measured response time to more accurately reflect the client-perceived server response time, thereby allowing for more accurate assessment of service level agreements, client satisfaction, provisioning and the like.
