A classic text in the field of performance analysis is The Art of Computer Systems Performance Analysis: Techniques for Experimental Design, Measurement, Simulation, and Modeling by Jain [59]. Another excellent book is The Practical Performance Analyst by Gunther [45]. Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking with Realistic Applications by Eigenmann [35] emphasizes the collection and analysis of data from standard benchmarks. Web Protocols and Practice by Krishnamurthy and Rexford [66] has some excellent performance case studies characterizing web traffic and web server workload. Capacity Planning for Web Services: Metrics, Models and Methods by Menasce and Almeida devotes an entire book to web server modeling and performance analysis. Finally, Probability and Statistics with Reliability, Queuing and Computer Science Applications, 2nd ed. by Trivedi [126] is an invaluable statistical reference if you plan to go beyond mean and standard deviation in your analysis. For current examples of excellent work in performance evaluation, look at recent proceedings of the ACM Sigmetrics Conferences or the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking. "Performance issues of enterprise level web proxies," by Maltzahn et al. [77] and "Performance issues in WWW servers," by Nahum et al. [85] are examples of recent articles.
