Hey Thanks for the pointer. I think for the moment I will just use the hold_samples property. I'm going to write my own remote plugin that will return the log file at specified intervals. I'll let you know how I get on.

The summariser.* properties are related to the Post-Processor, "Generate Summary Result". If you add "Generate Summary Result" to your thread group, a summary of results are written into a log files(jmeter.log) and/or System.out. [jmeter.properties] summariser.interval [sec]: * Interval between summaries (in seconds) default 3 minutes summariser.log [true/false]: * Write messages to log file ? summariser.out [true/false]: * Write messages to System.out ? In Distributed testing, if you set the above properties in remote servers, summaries are written into each remote server. > So I can receive one large return message or several small messages. > I like to find a medium to help reduce network traffic but also retain > the ability to look in on the test. So for example instead of receiving > 600000 updates only receive 1000. A message of a summary is not sent by remote servers. So I think the summariser does not make the above configuration possible. i.e. I guess the current JMeter does not support the above configuration.
