Hi Philippe, thanks for your response. I already had the HeapDump setup as requested, here's a link to one of the many I have from testing:
http://www.mediafire.com/?r4xqa08chm6y5cq With regard to your questions: - I have tried differnt numbers of threads from 1 - 20 but in all cases the memory usage escalates and eventually oom kills jmeter. Naturally this takes a little bit longer with 1 thread as the memory usage is lower and the ramp up slightly slower. - I can't really share my JMX file as it has private information in it, I have tried stripping it all back to a single HTTP request however and it still causes the memory to slowly escalate on the slave servers. - I have changed the Xmx value to as high as possible without impacting on system performance. At no point am I hitting swap on any of the systems involved. The servers in question are Intel C2D 2.66 CPUs with 2GB RAM, I am using the following Xmx value on all servers: HEAP="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m" with per-sample settings of: NEW="-XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=256m" -- View this message in context: http://jmeter.512774.n5.nabble.com/Distributed-testing-Memory-usage-tp4849000p4852905.html Sent from the JMeter - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: jmeter-user-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: jmeter-user-h...@jakarta.apache.org
