I want to increase the wait time the loadrunner controller uses while waiting for a response from a web service. I'm using loadrunner 8.1. It currently is set to 120 seconds by default. I unchecked the check timeout box and changed all the times to 999. When I run the scenario, it still times out in 120 seconds. What am I missing?

Response Time
There is an application which is having a response time of 2.5 seconds. After a minor hotfix, the response time increased to 4 seconds. If you need to provide a report to the client. What is the analysis you make in such a situation?
papayamilkshake
- Jun 21st, 2008
Agreed on giving two different set of results, with and without the hotfix.? You can also do a verification run and advise the user the impact on performance after the hotfix is been implemented.? This goes back to what is the intention of the report to the user.-papayamilkshake
seenu_anand
- Jun 13th, 2008
It would be good if you provide both the response time with and with out the Hotfix.This would be a comparision and the client can think whether to include that Hotfix or not.
