[12:43:14 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> otherwise it is per-thread throughput
[12:43:26 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> which is really impossible to get a decent repeatable test setup with
[12:43:33 CST(-0600)] <dd> ah, ok. i had that timer in there before but didn't have "all active threads"
[12:44:09 CST(-0600)] <dd> so you have it loop forever until you get errors or have enough data?
[12:44:34 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yup
[12:44:47 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> generally we run tests where I'm watcfhing it
[12:45:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if I wanted an automated test I'd set the scheduler bit in the thread group control to run for a fixed time
[12:45:13 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so threads still loop forever
[12:45:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but the whole test may only run for X minutes
[12:45:30 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and 3-5 seconds per thread on ramp up is really needed
[12:46:54 CST(-0600)] <dd> ok, thank you EricDalquist and drewwills, great places to start, much appreciated
