Providing engineered capacity and being able to ensure response times meet customer expectations requires proper benchmarking throughout the application lifecycle.  With proper tools, benchmarking can begin during the design phase, and should continue up until the moment of deployment and perhaps beyond.  This paper discusses the techniques for benchmarking queries in isolation, and for load-testing.
