# WorkSpaces Personal Metrics

To extend the available metrics beyond those provided by AWS by default, **WorkSpaces Manager Agent** and a **CloudWatch Log Group** are required.

When the WSM Agent is installed, additional performance insights become available. Administrators can view CPU and memory usage for a user’s WorkSpace, including **Live Stats**-a new feature that provides real-time visibility into CPU, memory, disk I/O and network activity for instant performance monitoring.

{% hint style="info" %}
The available disk space for both the **root** and **user volumes** is always displayed, regardless of whether the WSM agent is installed.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Use the **Statistics Retention Days** setting in the Enterprise section to define how many days statistics from WSM Agent are retained before being automatically cleared.
{% endhint %}

User activity can be reviewed by selecting the **Activity** tab, which displays session times and dates for the WorkSpace. Selecting Export All allows you to download a CSV containing the complete user activity log for the selected WorkSpace.

The **Startup Metrics** view provides detailed login performance insights, including profile load times, Group Policy processing, and shell readiness, helping to quickly identify login delays. This view also highlights the **Top 5 Highest Processes** exceeding resource usage thresholds.

{% hint style="info" %}
Selecting a process name opens a detailed history of its resource consumption.
{% endhint %}

The **Session** tab displays in-session latency over a defined time period, helping assess session performance and responsiveness.

Finally **User Location** displays the approximate geographic location of the user based on their public IP address and shows the estimated distance between the user’s device and the WorkSpace hosting region. This provides a high-level view of where the session originated.

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature can be enabled or disabled using the **Enable Geolocation Lookup** toggle in [Enterprise](/admin/configuration-section/settings/enterprise.md) settings.
