What is the advantage of running the Vuser as thread?

Answer Posted / mahesh sv

VuGen provides the facility to use multithreading. This
enables more Vusers to be run per generator. If the Vuser is
run as a process, the same driver program is loaded into
memory for each Vuser, thus taking up a large amount of
memory. This limits the number of Vusers that can be run on
a single generator. If the Vuser is run as a thread, only
one instance of the driver program is loaded into memory for
the given number of Vusers (say 100). Each thread shares the
memory of the parent driver program, thus enabling more
Vusers to be run per generator.
