Sample collection

Hi,

 

We are using grinder for our performance test and really it is very much realistic tool

 

My issue is, when I run 30 threads with 1000 runs (30000 tests) I ignore around 25 samples.

 

1 sample = ~ 250 tests.--- > this is got from the console by looking in to ‘successful tests/sample’

 

Next while am running for 60 threads with 1000 runs (60000 tests) the test collected per sample is high

i.e.) 1 sample = ~ 450 tests, Also the TPS is around 80 and Service time is around 600

 

I want to know why there is being a difference in collecting samples when the numbers of tests are increased. Also I referred to documents but unable to find the things.

So when the number of test is less the grinder is sending less number of test to the application server and when the tests number is high the grinder is increasing the test send to the server(his shows high TPS) so we cannot measure the full capability of the application server that how much transaction(max) it can process,l This is due to the inconsistency in sample collection mechanism of grinder(hope)

 

Please can anyone give me ideas regarding this issue. Also any document where I can find this

 

Thanks in advance

 

Regards,

Smiles
