Hi! I'm trying to test my postgresql database using jmeter. I have created a thread group with a couple of (ca. 100) jdbc samplers (under one random controller). Everything works fine, but I cannot understand what is the meaning of "Number of Connections in Pool" and "Max Usage For Each Connection" in "JDBC Database Connection Pool defaults" and in "JDBC Sampler".
Normally (i.e. with http samplers) one can leave a field blank knowing it will be filled with value defined in default config element, but with JDBC Sampler it doesn't work. Why? The other thing: I suppose, that setting number of connections to 5 and max usage to a large value - I will have 5 concurrent connections between jmeter and database still open and used by testing threads. Unfortunately, I see one active connection. Thus increasing number of threads from 5 to 10 - I can not observe bigger load on database server. Could the random controller be the cause of such a behaviour? All in all, each single test contains only one (random) request. Richard. -- "First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you.
