We are using jmeter to test a website which must work under the condition of 2MB internet bandwidth. The performance is unacceptable. When we were provided with unlimited bandwidth , jmeter recorded website usage to be 12MB on average (with a peak of 23 MB).
Referring to meter reports, we found the requests that were consuming the most bandwidth ( averaging about 9MB of 12 MB – 75%) were
?_TSM_HiddenField_= ScriptManager_HiddenField&_TSM_CombinedScripts_
ScriptResource.axd
Both of which were averaging more than 300K bytes for each page.
We want to know what can be done to achieve acceptable performance with internet bandwidth not exceeding 6MB.
