Abstract

Obtaining or facilitating obtaining statistical performance of a storage system is described. For instance, a method comprises: dividing a value range of performance of a storage system into a plurality of adjacent sub-ranges, an upper limit value of each sub-range being a predetermined multiple of a non-zero lower limit value of the sub-range. The method also comprises: determining a distribution of a plurality of measurement values of the performance among the plurality of sub-ranges. The method further comprises: estimating, based on the distribution, a percentile of the plurality of measurement values corresponding to a predetermined percentage to indicate statistical performance of the storage system. As a result, statistical performance indicators of the storage system can be obtained with an acceptable error using a small amount of memory resources.
