Using the Background Jobs Statistics page

The Background Jobs Statistics log provides the following options:

Start Date: Lets you specify a specific day and time from which to start showing statistics for the selected chart.
End Date: Lets you specify a specific day and time from which to stop showing statistics for the selected chart.
Select a Category: Lets you a specific category to include in the chart, such as ADMIN or BP, or use all categories.
Run: After you have set the start and end date and time and selected a category, clicking Run updates the chart on the page.

After you click Run, the page displays a high-level chart that depicts the number of times jobs were run for the selected category. The chart is followed by a sortable list that supplies the detailed information such as the name of the job and how long the job usually takes to run. You can use this information to identify jobs that take a significant amount of time and subsequently determine whether the job can be modified to run more efficiently.
