Throughput result on JMeter increase suddenly when using 100 threads

I tested my local website using Nginx with PHP-FPM currently by using Apache JMeter. I try to do simple concurrent load testing on it.

Here is my test plan configuration, with 3 thread groups:-
Number of threads: 10, 50, 100
Ramp-up period: 0
Loop count: 1
In the test plan itself, I have 5 different pages represent 5 HTTP requests.

But then when I used 100 threads, the throughput (request/sec) is increased than when using 50 threads. I have run this many times, the result still same.

What is really happening here? I'm still amateur about JMeter. Your help would be appreciated.

Possibility of increase in throughput on increasing the load is generally:

  • Increased error rate, more errors will increase the throughput.

hope this will help.
