Interesting blog post about Apdex

Here is an interesting post from all around smart dude, Tim Koopmans at 90kts.com concerning reporting response time to managers and other non-techy folks and it is interesting.

Check it out here.

Basically, it is a way to gonkulate a value and color code scheme to show if the response time for a transaction falls within acceptable limits for the type of transaction.

Checking out http://www.apdex.org/using.html you can see some of the target response times for the Apdex coefficient gonkulations.

This might be a better a cool way to supplement the way that I am planning on comparing before/after tests with Z-score values and a lot easier for management folk.
