           Summary: Lacking Poisson timer
           Product: JMeter
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Main
        AssignedTo: jmeter-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Guy.Bormann@trasys.be


It is great to see, as a newcomer, that JMeter has random timers. The usual
suspects of distributions are there (uniform, Gaussian). However, I am really
surprised to see that the most natural of all in the time domain is absent. Is
there any particular reason not to include a Poisson-distributed timer?
  (If decided useful, use a scheduling implementation that predicts the next
event instead of a uniform clock and the relation p=lambda*dt to 'poll' for the
occurrence of an event in intervals of dt. Email me for details if needed.)
