Hi Deepak,

while I respect your opinion and value your repeated contributions here,
I don't see why you keep so insistent that the master-slave traffic is
negligible.

Without knowledge of the application under test, you cannot assume
anything about the payload and thus the amount of traffic coming from
the web servers.
Without knowledge of the Test Plan and, specifically, the number and
nature of Listeners used, you cannot know the amount of traffic
necessary for the master to operate.

Granted, it is most common to stress test large-ish documents (i.e.,
bodies several orders of magnitude larger than headers) and making
scarce use of Listeners to prevent network bottlenecks, but your blind
insistence that it cannot ever be the dominating factor wrt. network use
is clearly not justified.

No personal offense intended.

Sincerely,
Felix
