  • Correlating performance data of multiple computing devices
    Patent number: 7925742
    Abstract: Systems, products, and methods are disclosed for facilitating the correlation of performance data associated with multiple computing devices. An illustrative method includes referencing a time as indicated by a computer and referencing a start time indication that identifies a time to begin monitoring computer performance. Thereafter, the time indicated by the computer and the start time indication are utilized to determine an initial monitoring delay. Upon determining an initial monitoring delay, an initial monitoring of the computer performance is delayed until the initial monitoring delay has lapsed. In one embodiment, computer performance data collected upon the lapse of the initial monitoring delay can be correlated with performance data associated with other computing devices.
