1. A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium containing computer code that, when executed by a computer, implements a method for apportioning summarized metrics based on unsummarized metrics, wherein the method comprises:

  • receiving a log file, the log file comprising a plurality of unsummarized metrics comprising a plurality of metrics corresponding to individual transactions of a plurality of transactions, wherein each of the plurality of transactions executed a program in the computing system, and a summarized metric, the summarized metric being related to the program that was executed by each of the plurality of transactions, wherein the summarized metric comprises accumulated data across all of the plurality of transactions during execution of the program, and wherein the unsummarized metrics in the log file comprise a number of database calls made by each of the plurality of transactions, a number of input/output (I/O) operations performed by each of the plurality of transactions, a number of output messages or lines by each of the plurality of transactions, and a transaction type of each of the plurality of transactions;

    selecting an unsummarized metric of the plurality of unsummarized metrics that reflects a distribution of the summarized metric among the plurality of transactions;

    summing the selected unsummarized metric for each of the plurality of transactions;

    determining a ratio of the selected unsummarized metric for a given transaction of the plurality of transactions to the sum of the selected unsummarized metric for each of the plurality of transactions; and

    multiplying the ratio by the summarized metric to determine an amount of the summarized metric that belongs to the given transaction based on the selected unsummarized metric.
