Measures reported by W3SVCW3WPTest

This test exposes HTTP request processing related counters for the worker process. You will want to use this to check in on how the web server WAS object is handling requests to do things like make sure that the output caching is behaving as expected.

 The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Active_Requests Indicates the current number of requests being processed by the worker process. Number  
Active_Threads_Count Indicates the number of threads actively processing requests in the worker process. Number  
Cur_File_Cache_Mem_Usg Indicates the amount of memory used by user-mode file cache. MB  
Current_Files_Cached Indicates the current number of files whose contents are present in the user-mode cache. Number  
Requests_Sec Indicates the number of HTTP requests/sec being processed by the worker process. Requests/ sec  
Total_HTTP_Requests_Serv Indicates the total number of HTTP requests served by the worker process. Number  
Total_Threads Indicates the total number of threads available to process requests in the worker process. Number By closely monitoring the thread usage over time, you can proactively capture when the worker process runs out of idle threads, and promptly take corrective measures, so as to avert any processing bottlenecks.
