Riddle me this batman!

If I execute a test of 100 threads using my machine as the master and a
linux machine as the slave with each thread executing a single request I do
NOT get any negative response times.

If I schedule a test of 100 threads to run 5 minutes looping indefinitely
the single request, I am getting negative response times.

This does not make sense to me.

More thoughts?

Carl
