You can also run the tests on multiple machines in batch mode, and combine the results later. This is easier to do if the machine clocks are synchronised. If that is not possible, knowing the skew between the systems would allow for later compensation.
Batch mode (non-GUI) is the most efficient in terms of resource usage.

If you keep your tests sufficiently simple, you may be able to generate that load from just a couple of machines. If your test requires a lot of processing, adding more machines may help. There's no theoretical limit, but my guess is that the practical limit is pretty low -- maybe below 10, or even 5: the current architecture JMeter uses (as of 1.9.1) for distributed testing does not scale well. -- Salut, Jordi. prabhu varma wrote: > Hi All, > > I want to execute the performance test with 10,000 virtual users, I am planning to > execute test in remote mode, since we have enough machines.
