Analyzing performance response times for IBM WebSphere PlantsByWebSphere Application

This screenshot shows a list of transactions generated using IBM's PlantsByWebSphere application. It shows the user logging in, putting some plants in a shopping cart, then checking out. The transactions are sorted by response time, in descending order.

In this example, the transaction with the longest response time took 15 seconds. The analyzer shows that the delay was in the ShoppingServlet, running in WebSphere.

With RTI for Internet Explorer, instead of complaining that an application is sporadically slow, the user can go straight to the help desk (or to the developers if the user is on a test team), and show them the specific transactions that had poor response times. They can then begin immediately looking at the ShoppingServlet.
