Performance Monitor identifies logical disks by their a drive letter, such as C.</dd> <dt>Memory</dt> <dd>The Memory performance object consists of counters that describe the behavior of physical and virtual memory on the computer. Physical memory is the amount of random access memory on the computer. Virtual memory consists of the space in physical memory and on disk. Many of the memory counters monitor paging, which is the movement of pages of code and data between disk and physical memory. Excessive paging, a symptom of a memory shortage, can cause delays which interfere with all system processes.</dd> <dt>Paging File</dt> <dd>The Paging File performance object consists of counters that monitor the paging file(s) on the computer. The paging file is a reserved space on disk that backs up committed physical memory on the computer.</dd> <dt>Physical Disk</dt> <dd>The Physical Disk performance object consists of counters that monitor hard or fixed disk drive on a computer. Disks are used to store file, program, and paging data and are read to retrieve these items, and written to record changes to them. The values of physical disk counters are sums of the values of the logical disks (or partitions) into which they are divided.</dd> <dt>Process</dt> <dd>The Process performance object consists of counters that monitor running application program and system processes. All the threads in a process share the same address space and have access to the same data.</dd> <dt>Processor</dt> <dd>The Processor performance object consists of counters that measure aspects of processor activity. The processor is the part of the computer that performs arithmetic and logical computations, initiates operations on peripherals, and runs the threads of processes. A computer can have multiple processors. The processor object represents each processor as an instance of the object.</dd> <dt>Processor Information</dt> <dd>The Processor Information performance counter set consists of counters that measure aspects of processor activity. The processor is the part of the computer that performs arithmetic and logical computations, initiates operations on peripherals, and runs the threads of processes. A computer can have multiple processors. On some computers, processors are organized in NUMA nodes that share hardware resources such as physical memory. The Processor Information counter set represents each processor as a pair of numbers, where the first number is the NUMA node number and the second number is the zero-based index of the processor within that NUMA node. If the computer does not use NUMA nodes, the first number is zero.</dd> <dt>Redirector</dt> <dd>The Redirector performance object consists of counter that monitor network connections originating at the local computer.</dd> <dt>Search Gatherer</dt> <dd>Counters for the Windows Search Service Gathering service object</dd> <dt>Server</dt> <dd>The Server performance object consists of counters that measure communication between the local computer and the network.</dd> <dt>Sycrhonization</dt> <dd>The Synchronization performance object consists of counters for kernel synchronization. The synchronization object represents each processor as an instance of the object.</dd> <dt>System</dt> <dd>The System performance object consists of counters that apply to more than one instance of a component processors on the computer.</dd> <dt>Thread</dt> <dd>The Thread performance object consists of counters that measure aspects of thread behavior. A thread is the basic object that executes instructions on a processor. All running processes have at least one thread.</dd> <dt>WFP</dt> <dd>Provider Count is the number of providers registered with the Windows Filtering Platform.</dd> <dt>Windows Time Service</dt> <dd>Windows Time Service Performance Counters display the time synchronization runtime information from the service.
