Controller ,agents

Hi all this forum has really helped me a lot in learning this fantastic tool VSTS which has a lot more to explore...

well till now i was doing webtesting and load testing on my computer which acted as the controller,after the load test i use to get a red cross on the parameters like Memory,Processor under my computer Name.so that tells the performance of the run module on my machine...Right?

now my question is is this result that comes with my local machine actually helpfull i mean to say should i just by getting results about my computer performance tell the developers to improve on the parameters having red cross after that load test run.

or should the server act as my controller ,also i would like to mention that we have a Team suite version only .

KINDLY HELP!!

If you only have Team Suite and not the Load Agent product, then you only have the option of running locally on your VS machine. What I think you want to do is add counter set mappings in your load test for the servers under test, so that you can collect processor, memory, and other performance counters from the servers. Is that what you want to do?
