Filterable geography: Webpage metrics by location

Change what kind of performance data appears

Select your choice from the dropdown.

Default performance indicator is Average page load time. The map's legend lists the ten best or worst performing areas (depending on the selected performance indicator) for the selected time period. For example:

• If you select Count, the map's legend shows the top ten locations with the highest number of page loads, as well as the average page load time for each.
• If you select Connection setup, the UI filters out areas with low throughput. Then the map's legend shows the top ten locations where average connection time is the slowest, as well as the average page load time and count for each.

View summary performance information about a specific location

Mouse over any colored area on the map, select a location from the list, or zoom in and out of any area on the map.

View detailed data for a location

Select any area of the map. For example:

• If you select Canada, the map and legend show color-coded performance data for each province and territory. The list to the right of the map shows the top ten worst performing areas.

• If you select a specific province or territory, the map shows color-coded performance data for the top ten cities.

  The map includes circled locations which you can mouse over or select to view detailed information. In addition, the Page load performance and Historical performance charts below the map automatically update with each location you select.

Color scale

Performance quality ranges from green (the best) to yellow, orange, and then red (the worst). When selecting indicators of usage rather than performance, the heat map shows shades of purple, with the darkest shades indicating the highest usage.

The color scale adapts to your app's specific performance. Each area is a percentile range. To view the range for each color segment, mouse over the heat map's legend.

Thresholds

Different thresholds are dynamically applied to the colors based on the type of performance indicator you select from the dropdown and the maximum value your app has reported. For example, green for Average page load time may indicate 0 to 3.3 seconds, while green for Average network time may indicate 0 to 256 milliseconds.

Circles

The map's colored circles help you identify areas with performance problems at a glance. Each circle's radius is based on throughput reported for the city it represents, not the size of the city itself.

You may see many circles overlapping each other. This usually indicates a grouping of metropolitan areas which represent a geographic area of heavy traffic.

Webpage

• Page load time
• Throughput (pages per minute or ppm)
• Network time
• Connection time
• Secure connection time

Network

• Autonomous system number and name (ASN) via IP mapping

• SSL negotiation timing

• DNS timing

• Time to first byte

• ASN latitude and longitude for Internet service providers (ISPs)

  To ensure end user security, the agent collects GeoIP information for the end user's ISP. The agent does not collect GeoIP information for the specific end user. For example, if an end user in Portland, Oregon uses an ISP located in Beaverton, Oregon the GeoIP information would show their location as Beaverton.
