But let's look at them in just a little more detail to make sure we understand them. The first kind of chart is the typical XY chart, where you have a plot of some metric on the Y axis, and time on the X axis. We've seen a lot of examples of these kind of charts in JMeter, and often they're used to help us understand how our metrics change with changing load as well. So in order to better summarize data like this, it might be nice to combine them together into one plot. So here we have a plot that shows us the time, the response times as they change over time, and we also have a plot of the active threads. So let's export this to a CSV file.…
