Average Latch Wait Time

The document defines average latch wait time as the average time in milliseconds that a latch request had to wait before being serviced. It explains that a high average latch wait time or number of latch waits per second indicates a low cache hit ratio requiring physical reads, creating an I/O bottleneck. The corrective action is to add physical memory or increase I/O bandwidth.
