NoDelay just means that the TCP Sampler calls java.net.Socket.setTcpNoDelay(boolean on) which is used to disable/enable Nagle's algorithm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle%27s_algorithm The timeout is used to set the read timeout, which just means that the sample will finish when the timeout expires, rather than when the EOL character is reached. > > On Mon, May 4, 2009 at 1:24 PM, Ed Young <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I am developing a test to execute a sequence of simple text based messages, > > each message expecting a response.
