A loop count of 1 won't show how the application behaves under sustained load.
As far as I can see, the aggregate figures also won't mean very much, as they will depend considerably on the ramp-up time. Also, any start-up overhead in JMeter will have a disproportionate effect. I'd suggest using a smaller thread count and a larger loop count. [I normally use ramp-up=thread count, i.e. 1 second between threads] There are some very useful articles on performance testing by Peter Lin and others on the JMeter Wiki. S.
