TXs/sec           (Overview)

DESCRIPTION
The "TXs/sec" value shows the average number of transactions executed in a 
second by a Sun MTP system. Sun MTPScan calculates the value of this datapoint by 
itself; Sun MTPScan does not obtain this datapoint directly from Sun MTP. You can
see Sun MTP's calculation by using the kixdump -S utility.


VALUES
The value is based on the Update Interval specified by the user via the 
PreferencesDialog and the number of transactions ("TXs", in the Cumulative 
statistics) executed since the last update.

                #Transactions executed (since last update)
              ----------------------------------------------
                            Update Interval


INTERPRETATION
This value gives you an idea a particular Sun MTP system's throughput. This value
can be more accurately computed by using a shorter Update Interval. However, a
shorter Update Interval requires substantially more processing overhead.


CONCLUSIONS
This datapoint can be influenced by many factors external to the Sun MTP system
itself. For example, a development server's activities will cause a Sun MTP 
system to run slower than if the Sun MTP system has a dedicated machine. This
datapoint is most accurate in the latter case.
