Depending on yur version of 4.5, you may be able to use Citrix Report Center to get that data.

It may not be exactly what you are looking for from an app perspective.

Resource Manager is another option if yoo have the Enterprise version of PS 4.5.

i am only intrested in application specific metrics not server. please let me know if there are any other ways to measure app metrics.

ex :
App Name : MS Word
CPU : 5%-10% of 2333 mhz
Memory : 20mb
bandwidth : 10kb

etc

hope that helps

thanks
Resource Manager will give you some of that such as CPU and memory.  You must have the Enterprise version of PS though.
