Average Response Time

Microsoft.JEE.APM.PerformanceHealth.AvgReqTime (UnitMonitor)

A performance monitor for the average time take for a request to the specific application.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The average request time monitor tracks the average request time for an application.

Causes

An unhealthy state indicates that the average request time for the application exceeded the monitored threshold configured for the agent.

Resolutions

Use the events to determine and fix the root cause of the problem.
Distribute the applications across multiple application servers.
Add a load balancing solution to the architecture.
