Modern civilization can’t solve problems effectively without information systems. Providing reliability of such systems is very important and urgent task. One of the central ways to solve it is a testing. Nowadays there are different types of testing. For information system of global network the most important testing type is a load testing. It helps to estimate characteristics of information system and to research behavior of that system under the operation conditions. The improvement of load testingis focused the efforts of many scientists. However the research of testing launch and collecting the results are attracting much less attention. Onthis stage, the loading to information system is being generated and performance metrics are collected. Collecting of performance metrics is based on response analysis that comes from system are being tested. Every response must pass through the network stack of an operation system. This article is representing the results of experiments on measurements of network stack processing time. The obtained results demonstrate the average processing time is decreasing with increasing of responses intensity. Additionally our results show that processing time of incoming data is exceed time of out coming data. This circumstance must be considered during testing on a practice.
