Hi Oliver , I was wondering if it could be specific to Jmeter 2.2 (not sure though) Maybe I am missing something else here .I used Jmeter 2.1 on the same box and was able to go about 200 threads ( No of threads =200 , Ramp up period =5 secs) In this case I am sure that 200 threads don't accumalate to be fired at the end of the 10th minute . COuld it be a bug .I left the tests overnight (it was supposed to complete in 10 mns as per the duration set) but it went on :((( endlessly .
The other thing that i wanted to know is "Testing of AJAX apps using Jmeter " How would u simulate a HTTP Request with an XML payload ? Secondly what is the response time in case of AJAX apps considering that you could have javascript making multiple asynchronous calls behind the scenes ? How would I know end to end response time for AJAX apps ? I presume that the response time that Jmeter displays now is the end to end time - Time for request + Processing time at the server + network latency time . I also presume that when we say Throughput in Jmeter it referrs to "requests/sec " or "Transactions/sec" in terms of the processing capability of the application . Pls correct me if I am wrong . -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Problem-with-Jmeter-tf2037855.html#a5626807 Sent from the JMeter - User forum at Nabble.com.
