Deepak , You have a valid point. Running multiple OS processes may not simulate it accurately. In ideal case, we will have different users running the same *command line *requesting images from our single server (this server is load balanced obviously). I believe JMeter has feature to simulate such scenario by invoking multiple threads on different machines ?
