How many users I can run on a single JMeter instance?

2011-09-13 Thread Chinmoy Chakraborty
Hello!! I am running a load test with JMeter. The server is win 2003 server and has 2 gigs memory. I set jmeter memory to 1 gigs. In this setup 500 concurrent users runs fine with 800ms constant timer delay. But if I try 800 or more I see something strange behaviour. What is the maximum users

Hi, What I'm doing is calculating it like this: If I want a specific Sampler/iteration to be executed in a certain frequency, for example 6000 Samples/iterations per Minute and supposed we set 100 threads, put a timer on the thread group / sampler and calculate the timer like this: timer = 6000

Maybe you can use the Throughput Shaping Timer, offered by the following link: http://code.google.com/p/jmeter-plugins/ Kind Regards / Met vriendelijke groet, Chris Meinster / Capgemini Outsourcing Tester N29 TestOS [cid:image001.jpg@01CC7206.5DBE13D0] Com1: +31 6 46706779 Building Atlas Arena

hi asked many times in the mail archives - usual answer is it depends on your test as well and almost always leads to http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/best-practices.html#lean_mean But another thing to consider is the accuracy of your test . Just because you can run 500 threads doesn't

You shouldnt use Constant timer for such requirements , because that would need you to know in advance the average time your request responds in - for you to be able to calculate the delay you need to get the rate of requests you want These type of requirements are met by the constant throughput

To answer your question, on the 6000 req/sec tests where this is no throughput timer, it's about what you would expect, around 30 ms for the average request. So that means each thread can do about 33 request per second and if you have 200 threads that's roughly 6000 requests per second. I did
