Web Service Object

The Http Indexing Service object counters report statistics regarding queries run by Indexing Service through Internet Information Service. Unlike other Indexing Service counters, which can report values even if Indexing Service is not being used in conjunction with a Web server, these counters only report values when Indexing Services queries are executed through the Web server.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Queries per Minute

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Total Queries

Shows the total number of queries run since the service was started.

PERF_COUNTER_RAWCOUNT

Total Requests Rejected

Shows the total number of query requests that were rejected because the server was too busy. If this value begins to increase steadily, a bottleneck is developing. To alleviate this condition, reconfigure the server by adding more random-access memory (RAM) or use less resource-intensive queries. See the Indexing Service documentation for more information.
