In most cases, the Total<\/em> row can be ignored in the dashboard report.\u00a0 There are other many other use cases<\/a> for this report.\u00a0 The more useful weighted average is calculated and displayed on the RedLine13 results page, and composed of the percentile response time for each request weighed against the number of samples for that request.<\/p>\n
