Abstract: Systems and methods for managing overloaded machines in a virtual environment are provided. A device can include one or more processors, coupled to memory. The device can receive, for time intervals, a metric of performance of hardware of a machine hosting sessions between clients. The device can identify, for the time intervals, a plurality of scores indicative of performance of the corresponding plurality of sessions.

Abstract: Described are systems and methods of detecting processes causing degradation of machine performance using heuristics. A device may identify a plurality of time intervals having a use of a resource on a machine above a threshold. The device may identify a percentage of the use of the resource by each of a plurality processes on the machine using the resource during each time interval of the plurality of time intervals. The device may determine a score for each process of the plurality processes based at least on a function of the percentage of the use of the resource over one or more of the plurality of time intervals in which each process used the resource. The device may provide, for display, a selection of one or more processes from the plurality of processes ranked by the score.
