Michal, 
I've developed an application to collect votes from users;
the user doesn't need to browse in the app, but just to send
a vote. In this scenario I want to test how many votes per second
the application can handle before going in overload. 
So a thread must represent a vote, and the next request of the same
thread must be a vote from another user, that is why I don't need a 
delay between two requests of the same user, but something that simulate
a new user every time.

Without setting any Timer I could probably work out how many votes
per second the app can register by increasing the number of threads
until the avg response time is 1 sec.
But I cannot test what would happen if the number of votes per sec was
more than that for a while. Like how long would the app cope with a high 
vote frequency before timing out transactions, or worse before causing
deadlock in the database.

Thanks,
Michele
