Profiles
- Matthew Wagner
The Profile administrative page shows data regarding how long it takes XperienCentral to render content elements and presentations and to handle Siteworks requests. This information is crucial for evaluating the performance of specific elements and presentations as well as the handling of requests. If it takes XperienCentral an unusually long time to render a specific presentation, it could be an indication that there are issues with the JSP. If the handling of Siteworks requests takes an unusually long time, it could be an indication that the system is experiencing an unusually high load or that the server is running near its maximum capacity.

Overview
The Overview table contains the following columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Thread | The name of the thread. |
| When | The time that the request was executed. The time zone shown is UTC. |
| Name | The action(s) that were executed by the request. |
| Total time (ms) | Shows the total time, in milliseconds, that the request took to complete, including overhead (name of the thread plus the details shown when the request is expanded). This is always larger than the "Self time". |
| Self time (ms) | Shows the total time, in milliseconds, that the specific action related to the thread took to complete. This is always smaller than the "Total time". |
The entries in the list can be expanded and collapsed. When expanded, the nested entries are shown in a hierarchy. The nested entries show the notable requests that are present in the main request shown at the topmost level.
