Input/Output operations per second is a measure of the rate of data transfer operation.
#### Throughput
The rate of work performed. Especially in communications, the term is used to refer to the data rate (byte per second or bit per second).
#### Responsetime
The time for an operation to complete. This includes any time spent waiting and time spent being serviced (service time), including the time to transfer the result.
#### Latency
A measure of time an operation spends waiting to be serviced.
#### Utilization
For resources that service requests, utilization is a measure of how busy a resource is, based on how much time in a given interval it was actively performing work.
#### Saturation
The degree to which a resource has queued work it cannot service.
#### Bottleneck
In system performance, a bottleneck is a resource that limits the performance of the system. Identifying and removing systematic bottlenecks is a key activity of system performance.
#### workload
The input to the system or the load applied is the workload.
