I'm looking for ideas on what would be the best way of measuring throughput over time for very large data. Example: an FTP transfer of a 5 GB file. I'm assuming a custom implemented JavaSamplerClient, however, even so, doing the full transfer in a single call to runTest() would not provide valuable sampling. So maybe runTest() could just start the transfer (on a separate thread) on its first call, and then sample progress on the subsequent calls.
If this is possible then, what would be the best way to monitor the transferred bytes over time. Is there an API to monitor the traffic on a socket? Maybe some kind of in-memory proxy? Monitoring the underlying network device? Other ideas? Regards, Havard -- --->Google Switzerland GmbH Identifikationsnummer: CH-020.4.028.116-1<----
