What does server throughput mean

Question

If the throughput is increase how will be changed the response and request time? If I have the data(request/min)?

Answer 1

JMeter's definition of throughput can be seen here: https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/glossary.html

Basically its a measure of how many requests that JMeter were able to send to your test site/application. Or in another word the number of requests that your test site/application was able to receive from JMeter. An increase in the throughput will mean your site/application was able to receive more requests per second while a decrease will mean a reduction in the number of request it handled per second.

The relationship between throughput with response/request time totally depends as ysth stated. I typically use this number to see the load of the server but run the test several times (30x min) and take the average.

Answer 2

There's not necessarily a relationship. Can you tell us anything more about why you want to know this, what you plan to do with the information, etc.? It may help get you an answer better suited to your needs.
