Exactly. I might be wrong, but I do not remember "-1" responses for moving to Java 8. Philippe>Well since there was no abstract class, I don't see. Philippe>Do you have other ideas ? One of the common patterns is "interface Timer2", so each timer opts-in and declares if it should be adjusted by default. The relevant JMeter core code would do an instanceof check. Naming is one of the hardest problems in computer science (it comes next after "cache invalidation"), so feel free to invent the best name for Timer2. Don't get me wrong, my best name for Timer2 is Java 8 :) Philippe>PS : Any chance that you submit your Constant Throughput timer Philippe>alternative patch ? Not sure. There might be legals issue.
