Hi All, I've been asked to simulate real traffic for our system using JMeter in relation to file uploads in terms of Quality of Service (approx 60%) and realistic upload speeds.
Quality of Service seems reasonably possible with JMeter as its a matter of structuring samplers under a number of random and/or throughput controllers. Simulating realistic upload speeds seems much harder. I'm told that clients will upload files to our server at approx 5 - 20 kbps, and to simaulte this correctly, I'll need to throttle the connection the sampler makes, rather than adding a delay timer. Is there a way to simulate this in JMeter? Nothing jumps out at me and I don't recall seeing anything in the User Manual to achieve this. Has anyone else had to deal with this situation? Does anyone have any thoughts on how this could be achieved? Regards, Noel
