JMeter doesn't give you the page rendering time. It gives you the server response in HTML format. You are getting a time difference with other page rendering tool because it takes time to render the images, themes, colors etc... where as in JMeter you will be getting only the resource URI that's it.
So please don't use JMeter to calculate page rendering time. JMeter is specific to perform load test on the application. regards, Prabahar ________________________________ From: samurai241185 [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tue 10/19/2010 8:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Should there be difference in response time if we replay the recorded proxy script and follow same steps manually at the same machine. Hi , I just wanted to clear out one thing that i came across.I recorded a script on my machine(with 1 user/sec).I gave me response time lets say T1 seconds. After that i used same machine and followed same process manually.With the help of a time capturing tool (YSLOW), i recorded time T2.It shows a large difference between T1 and T2.But time capturing tool also takes into account another thing that is page rendering time after getting response from server . So my question is "Is jmeter taking following heads as an indivisual and showing their summation as a response time or it is not considering page rendering time itself?" 1.Jmeter self processing time 2.Time taken by server to respond a request 3.Page rendering time Thanks Samurai -- View this message in context: http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Should-there-be-difference-in-response-time-if-we-replay-the-recorded-proxy-script-and-follow-same-s-tp3219186p3219186.html Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Please do not print this email unless it is absolutely necessary.
