Hi, adding static resources as Samplers is discouraged, anyway: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/best-practices.html#lean_mean So you're on the right track here. > (2) Follow redirects. > This will limit the number of HTTP samplers. > > With the second option I get an error message (exceeded maximum number of > redirects: 5).

If your application requires more than 5 redirects of the same requests, you should allow that by all means. This could also mean that there's something funny going on, so you I suggest you carefully check whether Jmeter is doing the right thing.
