Hi list.

I have a question about the proxy recorder. When I use it to hit a
page it retrieves everything on that page, including .js, images,
.aspx, etc. etc. I can then put this into a test plan. More on that in
a bit.

When I just hit the page in question with a HTTP Request and tick the
"Retrieve All Embedded Resources from HTML Files" option and view the
results in a tree, I don't retrieve the same amount of data that I do
using the proxy. At first I thought it was because I wasn't retrieving
data that wasn't in the domain (i.e. called from an external site,
usually in the form of javascript) but some of the embedded resources
are sourced externally.

What would be the reason for the discrepancy?

The test plan I'm using could probably do with some work too but I
don't know how to set it up any better than it currently is. For the
content gathered using the proxy recorder:

Thread Group
+ HTTP Request (homepage)
+ + HTTP Request (homepage element 1)
|
|
|
|
+ + HTTP Request (homepage element x)

All other homepage elements are children of the original request to
the homepage. Is there a better way of organising it? I'm simply
trying to get the response time for this page, but the figures tend to
differ markedly depending on whether I use the above plan or the one
that only hits the homepage but also grabs the embedded resources.
