Definition

In DSR components, no database time is recorded. The value of this field is therefore always zero for distributed statistics records.

For ABAP systems:

Definition

A large portion of the execution time of a dialog is due to the reading or changing of data in the underlying database. This field stores the time required for processing logical database calls (calls to the SAP database interface).

Various factors influence the logical database access time. This means that read requests can be responded to either by the database buffer or the fast local SAP buffer. The buffer efficiency, the number of the required accesses, and the proportion of accesses that change the dataset all influence the total access time.

The database access time is measured in the database interface in the application server. This is why this also includes part of the application server CPU time and the network transfer time.
