+Calculation of the <a href="glossary.html#Median">Median</a> and 90% Line \
(90<sup>th</sup> <a href="glossary.html#Percentile">percentile</a>) values requires \
additional memory. +For JMeter 2.3.4 and earlier, details of each sample were saved \
separately, which meant a lot of memory was needed. +JMeter now combines samples with \
the same elapsed time, so far less memory is used. +However, for samples that take \
more than a few seconds, the probability is that fewer samples will have identical \
times, +in which case more memory will be needed.
+See the <complink name="Summary Report"/> for a similar Listener that does not store \
individual samples and so needs constant memory. +</p>

 If "Include group name in label?" is selected, then the name of the thread group is \
added as a prefix.
