Thanks Deepak.

And sorry about that attachment. You can find the screenshot attached to this 
file now. Please check it .This is the screen that I am getting if I
increase the load ( i.e. for all 300,400,500). Is this a bad sign that my test 
has failed? Or can I ignore this and increase the load in the machine. Its 
java.lang.outofmemory exception.

And I have done the load test for 2000 users using 8 machines. 250 on each. 
That was all fine. Now, I wanted to run the test for 5000 users. But then I 
don't want to use 20 machines for the same. So I am trying to find the maximum 
users that a machine can accept to use less number of machines as possible. For 
that I have to find the factors that affect the number of users in a single 
machine.

Thanks and regards,
Anitha Raj

You might be able to, but it depends on what else is running. There is some
JVM limitation of contiguous memory block , but as long as the JVM starts up
, its fine . Note however Windows performance sucks when it pages to disk ,
so if you increase this , your Jmeter client machine may not be able to
generate the right amount of load.

Memory is not the only limiting factor. Your CPU , network, what else is
running  are important too.

Im not sure what the point of this exercise is though. if you really need to
generate more load, get a few more machines, your results will be more
accurate.
