Hi,
New to JMeter, so be gentle. I have a very simple test. I want to hit the home page of my application with 40 requests per second. I am using remote testing, with jmeter-server on three UNIX environments, and just running the test from my windows box. There doesn't appear to be an issue with generating the load, but I am having problems in controlling the load, i.e. getting it steady at 40 requests per second. The approach I took was a Thread Group with 200 threads, a http request just to hit the home page, and a Constant Throughput timer with a target through put of 12 samples a minute. My theory was 200 threads, (users) * 12 iterations per min = 2400 request per min, i.e. 40 request per sec. However the test appears to be generating a lot more that 40 request per second. Any ideas on what might be wrong, or have I missed something. Any help/advice appreciated M.
