'How to check the Application performance is improved or not

I have applied SQL partition to a specific table and try to see application performance is improved or not.

I am debugging the application by pointing to unpartitioned sql database and noted the response time.

I have updated the config to the partitioned SQL database and noted the response timing.

Apart from noting the output response timing, what are the metrics that I can check and prove partitioned table has improved performance by xx% .

Even if the improvement is lower, what are the other metrices that I need to check here to get a better picture?

Thanks
