I would consider the following criteria for both normal and performance-critical scenarios:

1) Response time:  amount of time pages are to be displayed; amount of time transactions are to be submitted to database.
2) Throughput:  amount of time predetermined number of transactions are to be handled per second.
3) Resource utilization:  the amount of resources the application consumes per predetermined number of simultaneous transactions.
4) Maximum user load: maximum number of simultaneous users who can successfully use the application.
5) Business related metrics: considers business volume during normal and peak periods.
