Claim 4:
5. The method of claim 1 wherein using the model to monitor the objects for performance problems in the sliding runtime window comprises:
for each of the objects
computing a runtime distribution of events associated with an object in a runtime window,
computing a distance between the runtime distribution and each of the event distributions of clusters of event distributions, each cluster having a status label that identifies the event distributions of the cluster as corresponding to an abnormal operational state,
rank ordering the distances and identifying a fixed number of nearest neighbor event distributions to the runtime distribution, and
labeling the object with a status label of the cluster with a largest number of the fixed number of nearest neighbor event distributions to the runtime distribution, the status label identifying the object as being in a normal operational state or in an abnormal operational state.
