Actually I just want to tune the JVM settings for JMeter. A simple test plan is for illustration purpose only.
It's not the test results that I'm concerned. It's the OutOfMemoryError message on the JMeter console that does not make sense when you increase the HEAP size. Now I understand it has a limit depending on the OS and JMeter implementation may not have anything to do with it.
