Performance describes the degree to which response time and throughput performance considerations influenced the application development.
Application performance objectives, stated or approved (or implied) by the user, in either response or throughput, influence (or will influence) the design, development, installation, and support of the application.
| Score As | Descriptions To Determine Degree of Influence |
|---|---|
| 0 | No special performance requirements were stated by the user. |
| 1 | Performance and design requirements were stated and reviewed but no special actions were required. |
| 2 | Response time or throughput is critical during peak hours. No special design for CPU utilization was required. Processing deadline is for the next business cycle. |
| 3 | Response time or throughput is critical during all business hours. No special design for CPU utilization was required. Processing deadline requirements with interfacing systems are constraining. |
| 4 | In addition, stated user performance requirements are stringent enough to require performance analysis tasks in the design phase. |
| 5 | In addition, performance analysis tools were used in the design, development, and/or implementation phases to meet the stated user performance requirements. |
