Hi, Regarding the "Open Model Thread Group" that was introduced in version 5.5 of JMeter, can you please explain how this component spins-up threads in order to meet the rate requirements? In particular, how does it handle scripts with multiple HTTP requests in an iteration: does it check the rate for each request or does it take the TOTAL number of requests that were sent in that iteration? If it ensures that the rate is met for each HTTP sampler, than how does it handle scripts with the "Throughput Controller", i.e., where some samplers are executed at a certain percentage of others?
Also, in the script design, do we still need to add an "iterationDelay" pause at the end of the script or can we remove this element as the component should now sleep the Virtual Users before looping again so it meets the specified rate of arrival?
