Excellent! Thanks for the information - I'll put a comment in jmeter.properties and/or the jmeter script files.
If one wants to apply different timeouts to different requests, it becomes a bit awkward - and the property doesn't seem to be supported in Java 1.3 - so I suspect we'll still want to consider using an HTTP package that offers more control. However, knowing the property name, Google gave me: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/properties.html which has details on a lot of other properties. These could be useful whilst JMeter still uses the default implementation.

I found a working solution for my timeout-problem: Java 1.4 has got a property 'sun.net.client.defaultReadTimeout'. This can be set to a appropriate value and raises a 'java.io.IOExcetion: Stream closed' instead of waiting infinitely. Just set this property in the jmeter.bat as a java parameter by 'java -Dsun.net.client.defaultReadTimeout=1000 ...' for a 1 second timeout for example.

I don't think so - JMeter currently uses the standard HttpUrlConnection method, and that does not seem to allow for setting timeouts. There are plans to move to a different Http Client (the Apache one) but that has not been implemented yet. Or potentially you could use http://www.innovation.ch/java/HTTPClient/ as a drop-in replacement by setting the appropriate properties - see the documentation. That implementation supports timeout, but I'm not sure if you can set the timeout from properties, or whether it would need code changes in JMeter.

Hi List is there a possibility to set a time out value for a HTTP Request? I do a HTTP Request to a Servlet but sometimes the Servlet doesn't respond anything. I tried unsuccessful Duration Assertion - this works only if there is a respond (in time/not in time). What I'm looking for is a 'Time Out Assertion' which waits a adjustable time period and gives a negative response to the results, if the request expires.
