Hi Adrian, Adding a transaction controller to hold my 10 simple controllers resulted in a 46th line in the summary report and in the aggregate graph. Indeed it shows aggregated values at the transaction level: average / min / max times etc. over all runs.
I still see the detailed values at the 45 page leves thougl, which is a minor annoyance that I can live with. The only place where I find run-time values for each individual run / transaction is in "View results in table": I could copy every 46th line to Excel and use that to draw my graphs. The result is not perfect, but it's a big step forward already. Thanks a lot. P.S: As for the 4x per hour timing: I'm using a fixed delay after the last simple controller, combined with a loop count at the thread group level. It's accurate enough for my needs. As an alternative, I tried your suggestion and added a constant throughput timer outside the transaction controller. The result was a pause between each and every page request ;-( Kind Regards.
