Hello,
i wrote simple test with one group, one request and sleep.
`val scn = scenario("testscenario").group("examplegroup") { exec(http("examplerequest").get("http://www.google.pl")) .pause(30) }`
On the Gatling Report, on Indicator chart i see two different times, chart for group has other time than chart for request.
I noticed that group includes also pause time.
Is there any possibility to remove this pause time from group time?
Thanks

Hi,
try to change the value of useGroupDurationMetric in gatling.conf.
See here for details: [https://gatling.io/docs/2.3/general/reports/](https://gatling.io/docs/2.3/general/reports/)
> Group timings are by default the cumulated response times of all elements inside the group. Group duration can be displayed instead of group cumulated response time by editing the gatling.conf file.
Cheers,
Adam
