GetThinkTimeAdjustment Function

Action

Silk Performer allows you to adjust think times for each user type. With think time adjustment, a user type’s session time can easily be adjusted to your throughput requirements.

Returns the state of the current think time adjustment.

Include file

Kernel.bdh

Syntax

GetThinkTimeAdjustment( out fThinkTimeFactor : float optional,
                        out fSessionTime     : float optional ) number;

Return value

Can be either:

OPT_TTA_NONE : Adjustment of think times is disabled.
OPT_TTA_STRESSTEST : Think times are ignored.
OPT_TTA_STATIC : Think times are multiplied by a static factor to adjust session time. The parameter fThinkTimeFactor is set.
OPT_TTA_DYNAMIC : Dynamic think time adaptation is used to keep throughput rates constant.

Parameter	Description
fThinkTimeFactor	Think times are multiplied by this static factor to adjust session time.
fSessionTime	The session time to reach when dynamic think time adjustment is used.

Example

use "kernel.bdh"
var
  nTrans : number init 0;

dcluser
  user
    WebUser
  transactions
    TWeb        : 1;

dcltrans
  transaction TWeb
  var
    nTTA : number;
  begin
    nTrans := nTrans + 1;
    ThinkTime(3.0);

    if nTrans = 5 then
      SetThinktimeAdjustment(OPT_TTA_DYNAMIC, 3.0, 9.0);
    end;

    if nTrans = 9 then
      SetThinktimeAdjustment(OPT_TTA_NONE);
    end;

    nTTA := GetThinkTimeAdjustment();
    write("thinktime adjustment: ");
    if nTTA = OPT_TTA_NONE then
      write("disabled");
    elseif nTTA = OPT_TTA_STRESSTEST then
      write("stresstest");
    elseif nTTA = OPT_TTA_STATIC then
      write("static");
    elseif nTTA = OPT_TTA_DYNAMIC then
      write("dynamic");
    end;
  end TWeb;
