Hi, I'm starting to use remote servers but having trouble understanding its throughput behaviour and how it distributes the threads in the Test Plan..
I have a Test Plan that achieves about 10 requests/second run locally against a target system, when using 20 threads. I take this same Test Plan with the same number of threads and run it on a single remote server, controlled by the original machine. I get about 5 requests/second, about half the total number of Samples in the same period of time. The response times are similar, and Uniform Random Timer settings are identical, so it's almost as if the remote server is running 10 threads rather than 20. I then add a second remote server and run the same Test Plan remotely over those two. Strangely, I get about 2.5 requests/second in total! I'm observing requests per second through a Summary Report, and an Aggregate Report. I also happen to have a Graph Results running. Here's the kicker: just to make sure I'm not running into capacity problems of the specific remote machine, I copy my .jmx script directly over to one of the remote servers and run it LOCALLY from there. I get the full 10 requests per second I'm expecting.
