Graph Result is expensive to run; use Summary Report instead whilst conducting the actual test, and reload the data for analysis later. A loop count of 1 does not really give JMeter time to get going; there is some startup overhead the first time elements are used. Much better would be to use a larger loop count and use the Constant Throughput Timer to control the rate. Try creating a dummy test using the Java Request Sampler so you can test things out without stressing the server or the network. Then replace it with the SOAP sampler. BTW, the XML-RPC sampler uses fewer resources, so use that it it works for you. > I really do appreciate any help or suggestions. > > thank you in advance. > > afm > > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Be a better friend, newshound, and > know-it-all with Yahoo!
