Accessing and reviewing the Broker Performance View
The WebSpeed Operational views section allows you to display information about the WebSpeed broker's performance and the state of the broker's associated agents. Review this data frequently; these details can help you make informed decisions about your use of the broker and agent pool controls as discussed earlier in this chapter.
To display and review this information:
- Display the WebSpeed main page for the WebSpeed broker instance that you want to review. See the "Accessing OpenEdge resource information" section for the detailed procedure.
- Click Broker Performance View in the Operational Views section. Fathom can display the WebSpeed Broker Performance View page (which can be comprised of data summary sections and graphs as shown):

Data summary sections
The summarized display-only text data on this page is comprised of two sections:
- Broker Requests — Details about the broker's connection workload as identified in Table 3–7.
- Client connections — Identifies the number of client connections that the broker is currently handling. Also, the total number of client connections this broker has processed since the broker started.
Graphs presentation section
The graphs presentation section of the Broker Performance View contains three graphs: WS Broker Request, WS Broker Activity Status, and Client Connections. Provided that the conditions for data collection are set and the Trend option is selected, the graphically displayed data associated with each of these graphs complements the summarized text data that displays on the WebSpeed Broker Performance View page. See the "Data collection details" section for details.
One display format for these graphs, as shown on the Broker Performance View page, is a line graph. This format measures how a particular broker-related activity has changed over a period of time. Table 3–8 identifies and briefly describes each of these graphs.
See the "Changing OpenEdge pinup graphical displays" section for details about changing the data appearance of graphs.
