The Request Activity Graph is a graph of the request activity samples currently stored in memory by FusionReactor. The time span of these samples will depend upon your history size and interval time (see Resource Settings). You can zoom into the graph and scroll through it in order to get a better view of this data. By default the Resource Settings store the last 12 hours of data (sampled every 5 seconds).
The graphs shows two independent values overlaid (transparent); the number of requests completed per second since the previous sample on the graph (Blue) and the number of requests running at the time that the sample is taken (Gray). This graph gives you insight into the server Request activity; if the number of active requests stays high and constant then your server is under load. It could be that the requests are taking too long to execute for the load being placed upon the server.
Placing your mouse pointer on a data point will show a tooltip with details about that sample.
Because this graph shows a large amount of information, there is no automatic refresh on this page, but you can click the refresh button in the page header to get the latest set of data.
Note: After a server restart the graphs are reset but the resource logs will contain entries from before the server restart. The amount of data stored in the resource log files is also typically far greater than the number of requests FusionReactor stores in memory to show on the graph screens. If the graphs no longer contain the data from the period you wish to examine, then you should analyze the Resource Log files.
