Here's an excerpt from the article:

 

Monitoring Aggregations

Clear the SSAS database cache since the data requests can also be satisfied by the cache, to clear cache use the below code:

  
 <ClearCache xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/analysisservices/2003/engine"> <Object> <DatabaseID> Adventure Works</DatabaseID> </Object> </ClearCache>

Connect to the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) ->Tools -> SQL Server Profiler. Select the default trace option and click on Run. Fire the MDX by opening the new query window so that aggregation can be hit by the query, Observe query processing and query events in the SQL Server Profiler, this would show data being extracted from the aggregation and the data request is satisfied within no time, in some cases aggregations may take some time where in designer might have created more aggregations. Before building the aggregations, using the SQL Server Profiler capture the statistics so that is can be compared later against the aggregations statistics.
