Where the time goes: duration statistics per activity (average, median, P95, max from the closed tasks of the last N days), per process (completed instances, creation to last change), throughput per day (instances started / completed / failed / terminated, as a table per application and an SVG bar chart), and the observed variants of every process (the ordered sequence of user tasks of each completed instance and how often each sequence occurs). The engine's own performance endpoints (/performance/query, /performance/instance/{id}) need tracking groups and are not used.
Target: IBM BPM 8.6.2, IBM BAW 20-26 (traditional) and CP4BA (Workflow Authoring / Studio import). Built from out-of-the-box building blocks only (System Data, UI Toolkit, one client-side human service, server-side service flows calling the product REST API as a technical user; where no API exists, a read-only SELECT on the product database through the engine's own datasource) - no third-party toolkit, no custom Java.
- Import
packages/Process-Performance-1.0.twx(Process Center / Workflow Center console: Import Process App; CP4BA: Business Automation Studio > Import). - Set the environment variables of the snapshot (below): the server base URL as seen from the server itself and the technical user the flows call the REST API with. The package ships no password.
- Expose the dashboard to a team (the package's default team holds
celladmin; change it) and open it from Process Portal or the playback URL of the human service.
| Tab | Content |

- docs/DESIGN.md - what the app does, every service flow with its REST calls and SQL, business objects, build and test procedure, pitfalls met on the way.
- docs/RECIPES-AND-PITFALLS.md - the recipe collection of all the kit apps: shared helpers, verified search / team / instance / operations / product database facts, build and deployment pitfalls.
The application is generated by a small Python program on the twxkit generator (standard library only, no base export). The generator
and the kit are served to AI agents and developers by the BAW Knowledge MCP server (https://bawmcp.dosvak.com/mcp, see
dosvak/baw-mcp): get_package('process performance (pperf)') returns this package, get_tool('build_pperf.py')
the generator, get_topic('howto-kit-utility-app-recipes') the recipes.
