Abstract
A performance and measurement system can be used to evaluate a computing system. An operating system of the computing system produces performance data about individual processes running on the computing system. The performance data is collected and reduced by combining selected data from the performance data into standardized metrics to produce collected and reduced performance data. The collected and reduced performance data pertains to groups of the individual processes. The collected and reduced performance data is logged into at least one data file. The performance data is discarded.
