Transaction Call Statistics

Very often average values for performance metrics, such as CPU time or elapsed time, do not really represent the distribution of transactions. The CICS SMF feature groups transaction performance values in 7 predefined static intervals. These intervals are shown following.

CPU time	Elapsed time
CPU < 0.005 seconds	Elapsed time < 0.05 seconds
0.005 <= CPU < 0.01 seconds	0.05 <= elapsed time < 0.1 seconds
0.01 <= CPU < 0.02 seconds	0.1 <= elapsed time < 0.2 seconds
0.02 <= CPU < 0.03 seconds	0.2 <= elapsed time < 0.3 seconds
0.03 <= CPU < 0.05 seconds	0.3 <= elapsed time < 0.5 seconds
0.05 <= CPU < 0.1 seconds	0.5 <= elapsed time < 1 seconds
CPU >= 0.01 seconds	Elapsed time < 0.05 seconds

See the Transaction SMF information section in the User Guide for more information about how this information is displayed.
