Hello all,

Here I am referring to a vm in the OS sense.  Suppose you are forced to run 
code on a virtual machine running on a blade computer hidden behind locked 
doors.  Access to the machine is limited to a remote desktop connection.  You 
suspect that the machine is far too busy for its own good.  Is there any way to 
test that?  Is there any way to separate network latency from the box being 
slow, or perhaps just plain busy restoring a backup to fix up the most recent 
crash of some piece of hardware or who-knows-what software?

Something that periodically runs a lightweight benchmark and logs the results 
comes to mind.  Is there something that is commonly used for such measurments?  
I would rather not add too badly to machine's workload, but it gets 
sloooooowwwwwww at times :(  Getting some data to objectify that statement 
could be useful.

Bill
