I saw the Grafana integration, but in my mind, any solution that involves external DB seems unsuitable for my simple needs. I am testing the Jenkins plugin, though I have been running into problems with comparing two runs. I wonder:

1. Do you need to fire the JMX testplan using the plugin to be able to
   compare results across builds with the performance plugin?
2. Do you need any Jenkins plugin other than the performance plugin for
   cross-build comparison?

In the worst case, I'll implement a solution similar to what Bo suggested, i.e. simply execute calculation on top of the CSVs. The database solutions seem great if you need to really work with the data; for my purposes, I mainly want to see whether there's a performance difference from the previous build and I don't care that much about the visual output.

Hi Marek,
I do use the Jenkins Performance Plugin for that purpose for some time, I'd say 
that you get quite a lot for free straight out of the box. Pretty decent. 
Another thing is that I haven't found practically any documentation (although 
it is pretty straightforward for a simple use - and there is a few posts how to 
setup it) and it is still not clear for me what to do if I'd need something 
else from it....

Regards,Alex

Hi there,

is there any 'supported' way to compare the results of 2 jmeter runs? I
googled around and found an old email from 2004 [1] basically saying
that there is no recommended solution other than a custom-made analysis.
Have there been any solutions to this problem?

I can also see a Jenkins plugin [2] though I have no idea in what state
the plugin is, and as such, how viable it is to run it. Last but not
least, there's some Grafana integration blog [3].  Does anyone have any
other suggestions? How would you compare two results programmatically to
see if there is degraded performance?
