    Monitor Resource Usage: Use built-in system monitoring tools or third-party software to track CPU, memory, disk and network usage, and identify resource-intensive processes that may be slowing ...

  3. CPU-bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU-bound

    The concept of CPU-bounding was developed during early computers, when data paths between computer components were simpler, and it was possible to visually see one component working while another was idle. Example components were CPU, tape drives, hard disks, card-readers, and printers.

  4. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved: Short response time for a given piece of work. High throughput (rate of processing work tasks). Low utilization of computing resources. Fast (or highly compact) data compression and decompression. High availability of the computing system or ...

  5. Direct memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_memory_access

    Imagine a CPU equipped with a cache and an external memory that can be accessed directly by devices using DMA. When the CPU accesses location X in the memory, the current value will be stored in the cache. Subsequent operations on X will update the cached copy of X, but not the external memory version of X, assuming a write-back cache. If the ...

    Power models are presented for each of subsystems CPU, memory and disk in reference [18] in detail. This power model is the core technique for Joulemeter. Figure 4 in reference [18] shows the block diagram of Joulemeter where System Resource & Power Tracing module reads the full server CPU, disk and power usage. The VM resource tracking module ...

  7. Thrashing (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrashing_(computer_science)

    Thrashing is when the CPU performs 'productive' work less and 'swapping' work more. The overall memory access time may increase since the higher level memory is only as fast as the next lower level in the memory hierarchy. [2] The CPU is busy swapping pages so much that it cannot respond to users' programs and interrupts as much as required.

  8. Load (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)

    An idle computer has a load number of 0 (the idle process is not counted). Each process using or waiting for CPU (the ready queue or run queue) increments the load number by 1. Each process that terminates decrements it by 1. Most UNIX systems count only processes in the running (on CPU) or runnable (waiting for CPU) states.

  9. Resource Monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Monitor

    Resource Monitor, a utility in Windows Vista and later, displays information about the use of hardware (CPU, memory, disk, and network) and software (file handles and modules) resources in real time. [1] Users can launch Resource Monitor by executing resmon.exe (perfmon.exe in Windows Vista).
