According to the official HTTP1.0 and HTTP 1.1 specification, there is a limit on the number of concurrent connections from one browser to a server. http1.0 sets the limit at 4 http1.1 sets the limit at 2 therefore, even a browser has to wait. It's not desirable or practical to allow JMeter to create n threads to retrieve n graphics. peter

It just wouldn't be feasible. JMeter is already multi-threaded, and if you had 200 simulated users each spawning their own threads, you could have problems. -Mike On Sat, 2004-06-12 at 12:56, Low Kuan Loong wrote: > I can confirm that Joe is right; JMeter does wait.
