Item Description
Average Read or
Average Write
The average throughput or bandwidth (in megabytes per
second), plotted over time.
Recent Read or
Recent Write
The calculated throughput or bandwidth (in megabytes per
second) for recent I/O operations, plotted over time.
Peak Read or
Peak Write MS
The peak latency for individual I/O operations (either reads or
writes) that have been completed over a short period of time.
A high measurement indicates a longer period of time was
needed for the operation to complete.
Because only the highest (peak) measurement over a short
period of time is displayed, a single high peak could be
accompanied by many low-latency operations that do not
appear in the graph.
