A single loop through the test isn't going to give you steady, predictable 
results.  Too many things can affect it - garbage collection in jmeter, thread 
synchronization hicchups, daemon processes on your server, etc.  And the 
min and max are going to be fairly random anyway.  Try several more loops to 
let the average settle down before repeating this experiment.

count 1.I used 'aggregate report' as the listener.I stopped increasing the load 
when the report showed some error % .Now I plotted a line-graph with Number 
of threads on X-axis and the min ,max,and Avg on Y-axis.

running on the server nor on client where jmeter is running and both server and 
client are on the same LAN.

jmeter a good tool for load testing.Please clarify .
