Greetings, RT> I am not sure if JaVa Request is the cause of error. JMeter exceeds heap RT> memory. It will be good if you will use java profiler for identify which objects are used 512m from JVM Heap. Maybe memory leaks? How many threads you can start with the following HEAP settings? -Xms128m -Xmx128m
RT> To resolve this issue we are not using Distributed testing in this there RT> are 2 Jmeter servers. But now we are facing issue of distribution of odd RT> no of threads across tests. This is because when we configure the no of RT> threads from Client say N = 7. It will distribute these threads across 2 RT> servers and finally we get 14 requests for each sampler being executed RT> under thread group. Is their any way to execute odd no of threads in RT> distributed testing. Please suggest. I don't know why you need odd threads. All suggestions is not good as for me. I think it is needed to fix OutOfMemory issue. So: 1. You can use 3 JMeter servers :). Even on one machine. 2. You can add special parameter on the server for correct thread numbers. For example, jmeter-server.bat -Jloop.offset=0. 3. You can use some flag (user parameters) for interrupting excess threads. 4. etc... But I think it is another thread for discussion. >>> We are using JMeter 2.3.0 and java 1.5.
