I believe there should be no difference using Citrix or local desktop. The load on the system should be the same just check the Citrix Box configuration as more number of simultaneous sessions on the same Citrix box would indicate more memory and CPU usage as compared to one session spawning multiple threads.

My scenario is this: part of the total load I need to generate will have to come through Citrix sessions, the rest 'normally' from desktops. The Citrix server is set up so that a user can have at most 2 sessions, and all sessions share the same IP address. (The load scripts are created and ready for playback, so no issues there.) I am just wondering if it would be a valid assumption to make that if I create x users from the JMeter instance installed on one Citrix session, that this number of users would put the same load on the system as x Citrix sessions having only one user each. I hope that made sense =) Any pointers/past experiences/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
