The tp90 is a minimum time under which 90% of requests have been served.
tp90 = top percentile 90
Imagine you have response times:
10s
1000s
100s
2s
Calculating TP is very simple:
1. Sort all times in ascending order: [2s, 10s, 100s, 1000s]
2. find latest item in portion you need to calculate.
2.1 For TP50 it will be ceil(4*0.5) = 2 requests. You need 2nd request.
2.2 For TP90 it will be ceil(4*0.9) = 4. You need 4th request.
3. We get time for the item found above. TP50=10s. TP90=1000s
可以认为 TP90的意思是保证90%请求都能被响应的最小耗时。
