Exemplary methods, systems, and products are described for normalized measurement of computer resource usage by use of benchmarks of performance that reduce the complexity of calculating customer charges for use of computer resources in a hosted environment. More particularly, exemplary methods, systems, and products are described for normalized measurement of computer resource usage that include calculating a normalization coefficient for a computer resource of a type, measuring actual usage of the resource by a user, and calculating normalized usage in dependence upon the normalization coefficient and the actual usage. Calculating a normalization coefficient is typically carried out in dependence upon a benchmark value for the computer resource and upon benchmark values for a multiplicity of computer resources of the type.
