The invention is directed to a computer-implemented method and system for improving processing performance for a group of computing resources, the method implemented on at least one computer having a processor and accessing at least one data storage area. The method comprises implementing the processor for calculating a benchmark for each computing resource in the group of computing resources and normalizing the benchmark across the group of computing resources to determine a number of performance units for each computing resource. The method additionally includes providing a graphical user interface for facilitating visual comparison for comparing processing performance indicators for multiple computing resources in the group of computing resources and reconfiguring at least some of the computing resources represented on the graphical user interface based on the comparison.
