Before we have written our own SampleSender we tried this one. What makes it most worse is the fact that it stores the whole response body. Therefore rather small tests runs into OutOfMemory if the bodies are big (JSON/HTML). Additionally it blocks the whole process because the sample store is (unnecessarily) synchronized.
In my opinion the only useful way to use a HoldSampleSender is one based on statistical data mining.
