title: JMeter - controller for throughput
body: <p>I have a webservice requirement that it should be able to process minimum 1000 requests / min. </p>
  
  <p>I can create a JMeter test &amp; call this webservice again and again in a loop to see how many requests were made - for 1 user it is able to make 100 calls in a min, I can increase the user to 10-15 &amp; see if i am able to process minimum 1000 requests / minute or not.</p>
  
  <p>My question is - Is there any controller/method to test this type of requirement - 1000 requests/min (user count can be anything)? (I do not want to increase the user by using trial &amp; error method)</p>
  
  <p><code>Throughput controller</code> - as apache says it is badly named. it is not for this. Can <code>Constant Throughput Timer</code> be used for this requirement?</p>
