What if the num of users is lower than the num of user paths in a population?

What if the num of users is lower than the num of user paths in a population?

For example, let's say I have a Population with 12 User Paths, and they're weighted in some way to add up to 100%. But in my scenario I set a max of only 5 users and tell it to run for an hour. Will NeoLoad use those 5 users to intelligently work through all 15 user paths respecting the weights? Or will it just run the first 5 user paths it encounters?

Thanks very much in advance!

If you have 12 User Paths in your population and you run only 5 concurrent users except if your users are stopped at runtime so NeoLoad can start new users only 5 user paths will be used.

You need to understand that to pick up other user paths based on their weights and still stick to your 5 user loads if none of the users are stopped NeoLoad can't use the other user paths.

The weight is computed based on the amount of users that are started and in your case this weight can't be applied due to the low number of concurrent users.
