Jmeter only has as much memory as the Java VM (-Xmx) which is the same for ANT (though yes you would have ANT's footprint), I prefer ANT myself , more convenient , portable etc , havent had any memory issues that wouldnt have happened on the command line.we pass environment specific parameters etc easily from the Ant script...
I guess its a matter of personal preference. I dont know if ANT works when you are using Jmeter to run clients remotely so that might be another reason for you... regards deepak On Thu, May 21, 2009 at 10:19 AM, Andyy <andlo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Deepak, > > Cheers for the reply.
