Thank you Peter for your answer. You said : ... memory - free memory/total used ...
What i want to know is which memory we speak about here : is it the total used physical memory on the server or is it the memory used by the JVM or is it the memory used by Tomcat or the memory used by the requests sent by JMeter....

The red thread line should remain constant under constant load. if the red line increases rapidly, it means there's threading issues in the webapp. the load should show a regular pattern under constant load, since it is a combination of memory and thread stats. hope that helps peter On 2/28/06, Noureddine BEKRAR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > Can you please tell me which memory is monitored in the "performance > graph" of the "monitor results listener", is it the size of the used memory > for the JVM or is it the memory used by Tomcat. > This is the -not enough clear- explanation about this subject in the > "Building Monitor testplan" > > http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/build-monitor-test-plan.html : > > > ...
