You are not wrong. Strictly speaking, latency is time to first response, which will in general be more than 1 byte. JMeter relies on Java and the OS to do the buffering, so can't easily check time to first byte. Note that some samplers don't measure the latency, in which case it will always be zero. > Ronan > > > Any thoughts? > > > > Since I have your attention does anyone have a baked SQL script for > > returning average latency per thread group? :o) > > > > Thanks, > > > > Carl > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [email protected] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
