The chapter proves that the web user’s dynamic behavior is a crucial issue that must be addressed in web performance studies in order to accurately estimate system performance indexes. To this end, in a first step we analyze and measure the effect of considering different levels of dynamic workload on web performance evaluation, instead of traditional (static) workloads. The more realistic workloads show that processor utilization is not uniformly balanced along time, but overloaded peaks rise when considering user’s ...
