George @StresStimulus Administrator Posts: 568 4/3/2023	George @StresStimulus Administrator Posts: 568 Ramp-down functionality is described here https://support.stresstimulus.com/display/doc57/Step+Load. It is essentially a ramp-down ending to a test. The difference between Wait for iterations to complete and Ramp-down and wait for iterations to complete is as follows · Wait for iterations: After the run duration elapsed, the test will be over when every VU currently running finishes its current iteration. I.e., every VU is “marked for completion”. · Ramp-down and wait for iterations to complete: After the run duration has elapsed, the test will continue. Then, for every period (determined by the Step Duration property), some number of VUs (determined by Step VU Increase property) will be marked for completion.
