Patent ID: 8046195

Claim:
A method, implemented by a client computer system programmed to perform the following, comprising: marking, by the client computer system, a starting message and an ending message in a message sequence to produce marked messages in the message sequence; transmitting, by the client computer system, the message sequence to a server; adding, by the client computer system, an aspect to an archive to produce an aspectized archive, the aspect causing the server to timestamp marked messages to produce timestamped messages; deploying, by the client computer system, the aspectized archive to the server as a deployed service, which receives the message sequence as input and processes the marked messages according to the aspect; and measuring, by the client computer system, performance of the deployed service by calculating a speed of the deployed service for processing one message in the message sequence, wherein the calculating is performed using a difference between timestamps of the timestamped messages returned from the server divided by a number of messages in the message sequence.
