Performance Percentiles

When you open a probe's detail view, Oack computes a percent rank for each latency fraction — telling you where this probe sits relative to all successful probes for the same monitor.

PercentileInterpretation
0 – 50Faster than average. This fraction performed better than at least half of all probes.
50 – 75Normal range. Slightly above median but within typical variance.
75 – 90Above average. This fraction was slower than most probes — worth noting but may not indicate a problem.
90 – 100Anomalous. This fraction was slower than 90%+ of probes. Likely indicates a real issue.

Latency fractions

FractionWhat it measures
dns_msDNS resolution time
connect_msTCP connection establishment
tls_msTLS handshake (null for plain HTTP)
send_msTime to send the request
wait_msTime to first byte (TTFB) — server processing time
receive_msTime to download the response body
total_msEnd-to-end request duration (sum of all fractions)

Time windows

Each fraction is ranked across four time windows:

  • 1 day — Detects recent anomalies.
  • 7 days — Weekly baseline.
  • 30 days — Monthly baseline.
  • 90 days — Long-term baseline.
