It's already possible to run multiple JMX files in GUI mode (though
not automatically), and the server in client-server mode can be left
running between test runs, so that Java startup-time is restricted to
the client.
Batch mode only processes the single jmx file provided on the command-line.
I'm sure it would be to extend JMeter as proposed.
However the proposal requires an extra process to send the JMX data
and to receive the results, both of which add extra overhead.
Perhaps it would be simpler to implement an option to process all JMX
files in a directory, or listed in a file.
JMeter startup does not take very long (around 1 sec on my system) so
the proposed change would only benefit test runs with lots of
independent tests.
