Hi, Make sure you leave memory available for system processes, it doesn't make sense to allocate 8G of RAM to JMeter when the machine has 8Gb installed, I'm surprised it checks for this, but its a good thing. Also make sure your test setup scales vertically. Its advisable to scale horizontally, but if you really must use a memory intensive script, validate that your setup does what you expect of it.
