What if you measure the performance on the client side? I mean: If the client does not see a significant difference, the server's performance may be more or less the same, too. Or just measure how much I/O or CPU load the server is generating while you do your client tests. You could evaluate which ACLs are preferrable, but it does not tell you whether or where you could improve the servers ACL processing...

Maybe it would be preferable if monitoring were enhanced to include some break-down of processing, like: * parsing the request * preparing the request (checking whether is is valid, probably including ACLs processing time here) * executing the request The values could be per connection or as totals (or both) Regards, Ulrich > > Any ideas? > > Ciao, Michael.
